I don’t expect that such a tiny thing can be successfully glued.
The barrel is also one piece, so I don‘t know how I’d be able to transplant a donor piece into it. Does someone have a genius fix they’d like to share?
It looks like a candidate for either ‘display only’ status, or radical surgery to transplant a new mechanism that happens to be threaded correctly for the original cone.
I have used donor M301 innards to rescue a couple of Zebra oldies whose resin clutches disintegrated. But that did not involve the original screw threads to attach the cone.
I wonder if you could use parts from a ¥300 Tombow like those shown on the left of @pearsonified 's photo. I think I have one. When I get home later today I’ll see if they will swap araound.

Cheers! Yeah I have one or two of those as well - going to give it a go when I get a chance. I think it’ll be fairly destructive though…not sure the innards were every meant to be removed from the barrel.
These cannot be disassembled. I have an LZ and it’s identical except the body color. See if the LX cone can screw on an “independent” internal mechanism from a P205 or an older Pilot. Check if it is thin enough to fit inside the LX body and if it takes the LX cap. You might have to lenghten or shorten the donor lead reservoir.Than cut the stub with the plastic threads from the LX body and drill the hole larger if necessary. All by hand obviously.
Tomorrow evening I’ll bring my LZ from work and check if the cone fits on anything.
