4th gen Emergency Brake?

Hey, I got my 4th gen console in the other day and noticed when the e-brake is engaged that a small metal portion of the mechanism is exposed.

Anybody know how to correct this? The metal piece appears to be a stop for the handle, so I don't want to just cut it off and have my handle sit funny. Will a 4th gen brake handle mechanism directly replace the 3rd gen one? They seem to be pretty cheap on ebay, plus the handle is less square looking.

Any ideas? Thanks.
