What you trying to do Tony. The first pic the arrow is pointing to a sleeve in the can, that would need tapping out.

I’ve got a banged up one in the garage. It looks like the inlet cone is glued on and the oultet cone is welded to the pipe.

In original picture, the sleeve definitely looks continuously welded onto the end cap.

The 2 'end' caps are just glued/RTV'd onto the carbon body. So, with a bit of careful tapping and cutting with a Stanley knife, you should be able to expose the sound absorbing wadding. Under this will be the perforated pipe joining the 2 end caps.

IIRC, you will need to cut the sleeving, rather than trying to grind & chisel the sleeve weld.
