The black ring looks like nothing more than a spring clip. Either thread it on or use a large socket to lightly tap it on.

As to the lathe tooling, you might also be able to find a "rocker" toolpost or an adjustable tool holder. I have 4 adjustable (for tool height) ones that came with my quick change tool post made by A2Z. 1 for a boring bar, 1 for a cutoff tool and 2 for standard tools (I use carbide tipped).
