Séb,
I don't know the thickness of the thrust plate. Wear maks are normal and no reason not to re-use the plate, but when they start approaching about a milimeter in depth, in other words, when you can clearly feel a ridge when you run your finger over the wear marks, i'd get a new plate. Try to find a steel rather than a brass one. They last longer. The key can be tapped out with a flat punch. It's likely to get distorted. Sometimes you can dress it back to the right size by rubbing it on some fine sandpaper on a glass plate, but usually it's better to get a new key.
