Russian headsets/headtubes have a universe of their own, hence why the frames are not more popular an sought after. People start to be aware of this...well, some.
Solution: get a new set of forks/headset and get on with it.
it's next to impossible to source parts from Russia (AFAIK) and even if you could it would prove too obsolete
to even consider installing it...
About the races, if it is loose on the steerer you can get 'liquid metal' in a tube.
You mix it, apply it, it dries out and becomes 'metal'. You can then ream it at size.
I have seen it work.
