A bore extends axially through the body concentrically with the center axis between a first opening in the annular upper spacer surface and a second opening in the annular lower spacer surface. The annular upper spacer surface includes a radially outer planar rim and an engagement flange disposed radially inwardly from the planar rim, the engagement flange projecting axially upwardly from the planar rim and circumscribing the opening.
