At first I thanked and then I realized that the suggestion may have been to file the key in place.
Please don't introduce steel shavings into the crankcase. It's almost 100% that the key is deformed enough to warrant replacement. Try chamfering the opening for the keyway on the sleeve and see if you can get it to start. If it goes, you dodged a bullet. Still an awful hidden problem to pass on to someone else. Do the right thing.
