By the way, this is how I attached the hot end after finding i couldnt bolt it like it previously was:

6mm ply then i chamfered the edges to squeeze it in place. As you can see in this pic, it sort of looks like plastic somehow is leaking around the hot end. Not sure where from though.
I also cut slices into the grooved feed bearing although in hindsight Im not sure there was any point since it's not driven!

This is the PLA I bought by the way - the grey stuff:
