Just an update to anyone who is interested. I caught up with Stefan who graciously assisted me with the matter. Using a micrometer, we found out that the adapter was 0.04mm out of round. It needed lapping with diamond paste to finally fit. In the end it wasn't a Male OD, Female ID issue s I originally thought. You can see it from the high/low spots on the anodization.
It's a long way to return an item so if you are looking at purchasing one, please specify to them what your Female EP holder is (Baader click locks can be less forgiving but I have checked with Baader and by luck they had one which they tested on multiple click locks and all fitted).
