The piece that the ring attaches to is just a thin metal plate so you could try gently bending it down some too, that would probably help tighten things up
Ahhh, thanks for the clarification. On my 4th gen, I was able to flip this ring around 180deg but not so on the 3rd gen. So, I'll do as you did, build it up with some tiny amount of welding then sand it smooth.
