I moved it for you mate... Any chance of a picture of the nut and if you don't know the size then measure the diameter of the bolt? Preferably im metric mm's please.. I may have one from my old khe you can have!

lol wow how did you move it ... i will have to wait till tomorrow to get the cam... The nut looks 25.4mm wide so uhh... it also has a removable plastic circle thing with a hole in the middle of it and the top of the nut has a flange all the way around the top of the threads... If that flange wasn't there i could thread it on upside down because half of the threads are still there but my spacers don;t permit it to reach the usable threads BLAH such a headache.. i live in the usa are you in the usa? I  am flat broke so.....
I really really hope you have the same part...  ???

Yes outer diameter is 1 1/8" 
here is the other pic  of the nut plus the plastic pop out cap...
The inner diameter of the nut is 1 1/8 inch so that = 28.57500 millimeters. I just measured the inner diameter of it.

What you may have to do is... Get sum stem spacers and put them under the stem so the stem sits a few mm above the steerer tube then fit a start nut and top cap (see below link)

Thats the only way i can see around it thats cheap and easy... Sorry i can't help you more

Let me know what you think?

Yeah I was thinking one of those but I don't see how it would work...? Does the star tighten up in the steer' tube area as you tighten the bolt with the cap on top of the steer' tube? I've just never had to use one of those and i just don't know >. but homie say's he has one so I hope... i don't see how that will tighten it up ... because the outer diameter of steer' tube is threaded BLAH some bullchit right hurr!

The star nut doesn't just push in the steered tube, you have to tap it in with a hammer. You loosen off your stem and tighten up the m5 Allen bolt till the headset is nice and tight. Not so tight that it doesn't run smoothly, but when you tighten the bolt into the star nut it digs into the steered tube (the star is angled) then tighten up your stem.... Done
