I replaced the receptacle in the autoformer today. It took maybe 10 minutes . Drilled out the rivets with a 1/8" drill, popped the top off, removed the 4 screws that hold the receptacle in place, unhooked the wires from the ground bolt and removed the receptacle and replaced it with one from Home Depot. used sheet metal screws to refit the top instead of rivets to make it easier should I need to reopen the unit.
Plenty of room to work in there.... here's a pic with the top removed (receptacle is on the right and ground bolt on the bottom as you look at the pic)
