I cleaned the 40VE thoroughly this morning and all looks well. The plastic base of the recoil rod/spring where it locks to the barrel is deformed a bit, but it has always been like that. Maybe that is becoming an issue. The plastic base at the rear end of the recoil spring is uneven and a bit battered. But again, it's been like that since I bought it used. I'll try it again Sunday.
