Cork pad would help. Also increase key opening height.
What I did was to remove the key completely and play the C -> C# -> D, and G -> G# -> A.
If the problem improves then you know it can be helped with the fixes above.
If still stuffy, then some tone holes modification may be required.

I had a Rudolf Uebel and a pair of Arthur Uebel clarinets, all made in East Germany, in 70ies.
Rudolf was a really basic student clarinet, with flat stamped keys, and double pad on throat A key that was difficult to replace because you would have to replace both pads.
Arthur Uebels were made better, but still were student instruments, out of tune.
I acquired a B&H later and thought that it had better tuning than Uebels.
Of course, their current instruments must be better than the ones I had.
