    looking at the photos, all surfaces appear to be anodised. Thus you will need to re-tap the holes, and re-countersink the holes on the external surfaces. It is almost certain the fixings are metric (M3), so I would replace them with un-anodised steel screws. This should solve the problem

    Ideally I would remove the anodising from all mating surfaces, but the above should be sufficient.

    Good luck.

    I have just disassembled the case, and removed all anodising from the mating surfaces, and rebuilt the case.
    Will it make any difference?

    I have my doubts, but it can’t hurt.

    All I can tell you is that the resistance between the different parts of the case is now reading 0 ohms, where there was a very slight resistance before.
    I really doubt it will make a difference.
