I think you mean the unleaded fuel filler restrictor and you will find that there are a few cars floating around from the factory with bigger than a 1mm gap between the restrictor and the wall of the filler neck. It all depends on where your tank breather is located, if it is located on the side of the restrictor towards the fuel tank leave it alone, but from what i can imagine your problem is i see no problem. Your sealing is ment to be done by the fuel cap.

the fuel cap seals to the restrictor, which is sitting over the the end of the filler neck, trust me its not the fuel cap ive tried 3 different fuel caps.
there is a gap between the restrictor and the fuel neck so fuel splashes up along the fuel neck, between the restrictor and the neck, and then comes outside all over my paint. because the restrictor comes from the inside and curves back around the outside changing fuel cap cant make any different cos its only in contact with the restrictor.
so basically i need some way of plugging the gap from the poor fit restrictor, but i think im just going to try and take it out alltogether, so the cap can seal directly against the filler neck
