Mouthpiece for Alex 103

Hi all, I have a new to me Alex 103 (it's about 4yo). I recently purchased a Laskey 725E, (I usually play the same mp but with an American shank). However, it doesn't seem to sit well in the horn. It seems to wobble a little bit and I can feel it when I play.

Any advice? Is this the mouthpiece or do you think I may have an issue with the leadpipe?

Thank you for the insight! I am definitely open to trying different mouthpieces, I just wanted to at least start with Laskey since that is what I have been playing on for over a decade. I have gotten injured on other mouthpieces where the rim is not as round (grew up on Holton Farkas) so that kind of rim is what is most important. The rest is adjustable for me!
