Let him struggle with it and reap the fruits of his labor. Don't make his problem your problem. You can always say to him that you don't want to wrestle with the piano with the 'patches' he installed. Maybe he will re-rebuild it (in good conscience) with a new block for them and have a new respect for you. Besides, if someone does this type of sloppy work, do you really want to be aligned with them?
