i have done something similar to mine. but instead of super glueing it to the intake, i just used a larger piece of screen and by using my thumb start to form a dome indentation into the screen. once the dome starts to take the shape of a cone, i used a sharpie pen and pushed it into the intake.
this way it is not permanently stuck there and can be changed out in the future. the friction from the screen keeps it from moving. i also painted the screen with appliance spray paint to help with the corrosion problem before inserting it into the intake.
