I use these https://adjustingvintagewatches.com/tools-for-adding-weight/ I picked mine up from a watch fair years ago. Great for this type of work and for removing poise screws to fit timing washers. Cousins do a set, which aren't cheap, but I find that more than one size is definitely needed https://www.cousinsuk.com/product/balance-screw-holders-set Otherwise, if you have a really small pin vice that'll work.

You're right Rich on the op's first picture there does appear to be a spring popping out under the ratchet wheel, wonder why its not on the dial side ? -

I'm confused, I can see the click in the usual position next to the ratchet wheel. Surely the click spring is there? -
Hi, guys I had to order a new balance cock which was described as complete, which it is apart from the stud screw 🤬 Now I have a screw from the old cock but before I go and send it into orbit, I've tried to fit it already but without success, is there any tips I should know? I tried laying the cock flat and entering the crew sideways but this didn't work so maybe try it from a vertical position. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
