Again, back in the day when I couldn't afford nice tools I had a cheap wheel
cylinder hone that was actually made to use sand paper!
I always used wet or dry paper with WD40 as a lube. It worked as long as you
cleaned the cylinder well.

Rebuild if you can. I once had to go to a junkyard in upstate NY when
casting ear broke on a whl cyl while racing at WG. Also broke an aluminum
brake drum...and welds on front suspension... I "honed" junkyard cyl with
wet or dry sand paper and no leaks. Worked fine. The only LM Corvair
anywhere that I could find... What a cluster eff that weekend was... LOL!
