    Bent key

    Good locksmiths have software that takes the 4 digit key code and the manufacturers name and the software uses the code to come up with the correct dimensions of the key to cut. It then sends that info to a key cutter that makes the new key.

    Not to go off topic but since you have been away from riding 25 years might be a good refresher to take the course with you son.

    Bike Trade-ins

    Why not get the proper filter wrench for the size of filter you have and save all the headaches. A rubber strap style is going to slip unless the filter is clean and has no oil or dirt on it. What bike do you have? Just get the correct one for your bike ...
