Default McMichael 135 Tuning dial linkage

Can anyone advise on the interconnection between the drive cord drum and the dial gearing on this McMichael 135. There's a 3 spoke coupling and I assume that each of the 3 spokes should be riveted together. As you will see from the thumbnail below, the one on this set is not. Should it be?

oOn closer inspection it is possible that the 3 spokes on the drum side just engage with the ones on the gear side. On this radio they are tending to ride over each other.
