The nut is soldered to the brass plate and the whole thing is glued to
the outside of the secondary form. There's nothing on the inside.

It looks like the screw is largely "inside" the toroid and would likely
be shielded by its proximity, so it would probably be OK.  Close though
- don't move it any further away.

Is the screw head glued to the outside of the secondary form?  If it's
on the inside and not well insulated, it could result in internal
arcing.
