This is exactly what I had in the 90, and I could not re-use the central contact, as the thread was crumbling and falling off of the central insulator.
So I do not know, even if the thread is intact, if you could reuse yours as I am not sure how to connect the capacitor to it.
As for the putting it back together, you cut it exactly like I did, so you will just push the base inside the tube when all is ready, having put some epoxy inside the tube around the inner perimeter (a small bead, a full circle of it right at the edge).
PS. What is that blue thing across your lowe backelite (I think it is the line filter one?). Are you placing them on top? Place them inside.
