Now solved. The alloy "block" is a SpringAlex brand steering wheel adapter. Just need to carefully pull it off of the splines.

Perhaps that's part of a quick release system (?)
"Everybody should own a MINI at some point, or you are incomplete as a human being" - James May
"WET COOPER", Partsguy1 (Terry Snell of Penticton BC ) - Could you send the money for the unpaid parts and court fees.
Ordered so by a Judge

Just buy a new inner column they are not that expensive or hard to fit.

I don't think you could find another wheel with w square hole, could you? or at least it will limit your choices.
