~ squeeze the two sides of the stay closer together (risks marking the s/steel)
~ replace the "roller" (is there a custom-made one ?)
~ if not, then a slightly larger-size piece of brass or bronze (or fibre) tube ?

Yes, you can squeeze the cheeks together, also you can take out the pin & put a new piece of plastic tube over it (can just be seen on your photo)

Never lube the slidy bits or the plastic tube on the pin or it completely defeats the hold open grip
