I think that is a slider rod connected to a plate that covers the air intake, right? You may be able to bend the rod slightly. But be careful that you don't cause the plate to fit more loosely over the intake, letting more air enter the stove. I like EBL's suggestion of the graphite dry lube, though...or, have you got a pencil?
