Thumbs up And the culprit is...

this kind of ring piece inside the barrel that was broken in 3 pieces but still maintained in place.
I've replaced all the pieces described above & put back in place the barrel: it works fine.
Only disappointment: I can't say thank you to @Unclefista who unfortunately looks to have left the club since 2014.
But this club is great to gather so many helpful how-to that look like jewels for any worried or distressed Roverist!
