No, not the stem, but the seconds pin.

Sorry, I couldn't resist.

Without modding - no. 6497 seconds pin is ~0.27mm whereas Molnija's is ~0.23mm. The fastest and cheapest way is to carefully squeeze the hand's tube a bit. But obviously this is not the best solution.

I used to use a crimping tool in the staking set to make it work.

Though not every hobbyist has a staking set and is able to operate it properly I think )

That would be me.

Me as well. Which reminds me, I need to spend more time reading the ancient texts and less time surfing eBay.
