yea indeed.

I tried again this morning without success.

However when comparing the new bushing with old one, I noticed they changed the reference, so maybe the metal clamp has changed as well. I'm going to buy 2 new metal clamps, at least with 2 new ones, the bushing won't have any excuse not to slip thoroughly into the clamp.
