Yeah, I may change out the lock cylinder. I looked for a pin, and there is one tiny hole, I'd guess smaller than 1/16 on these. Didn't look too promising. I'd like to keep the original keying but that's not critical.
The real problem is that the finger that the lock cylinder actually turns on the back (forward, as installed) end of the assembly, the finger that turns the electrical part of the ignition switch, is snapped off. So either way, I think the whole assembly has to come out for that repair.

Thanks all for the help.
