You bring up a good point about this reactor, something I wonderEd about myself. How many people glued that piece in?? I too found it strange at first that vertex didn't just have that piece glued from the factory. I decided in the end that if they didn't have it glued then I guess it was snug enough and didn't need glueing. So long as you are not putting preassure in the reactor by valving and blocking the output then I would guess you should be okay.. But that's just a guess and a gamble that I think a lot of people are taking.
