Was the throttle shaft cut or did it break off?

I had my TB ported by New Era Performance. They didn't use epoxy either, mine looks just like yours.

My Shaner TB was filled in with some kind of filler, like JB weld or something. Anyways I had to drill out half of it cause it screwed up my idle. I would never recommend filling over the IAC. There are really no gains to be had and then you gotta worry about stuff like this.

I'm still running the stock/shaner and I hope when I get rid of it (probably next year) mine doesn't look like yours.
