Stephen,
We can't tell too much from these photos. This offered, I would say you're going to have to get the underlever in your hands at a workbench to address the problem, and in order to do that I believe (in a Bluthner) you're going to have to remove all the dampers to then withdraw the damper tray from the action cavity. I believe Bluthner damper trays of that vintage have glued-on underlevers at the rear of the tray - they are not individually screwed to the tray to permit easy removal.

Stephen,
Could you define "damper post"?

I recently serviced a Bluthner Aliquot Grand from 1901.
I am looking for 1 damper post. The original repair attempt that someone tried obviously didn't work to well.
All the best,
Steve
