Sometimes the Eb can be helped by holding the top plate closed by the extension tab only but leaving the aperture uncovered instead of lifting off completely.
If you lift LH1 off, make sure the top plate is screwed down so it only just moves by a barely perceptible amount, but still has less than a hair's width of movement in it. Adjust it so upper register C#, D and Eb and C#, D and Eb in the altissimo speak cleanly too.
Is the LH1 fingerplate completely independent (with the adjusting screw tip making direct contact with a silencing disc glued to the body) or is it lowered via a linkage arm connecting it to the LH2 ring key (with an adjusting screw)?
