Hi Rob,
The struts that you say ‘appear to be glued in’ are in fact. These struts were incorporated into the U/C frame as a mod way back in 1996 as a mandatory mod. The mod concerned is no 28 and since you will probably not have a copy of it I attach one herewith.
So they will be removable with some local heating and a bit of persuasion. Hot air gun heat should be enough. No flames! As you will notice it is ‘stuck in with Redux 420.
Later build kits had these struts welded in as standard.
Hope this helps.

Subject: Landing Gear Frame
I am checking over the landing gear after a heavy landing and one of the supports in the Landing Gear Frame appears to have a slight and small crack. Although it still attached to the frame. It does not seem to have been welded (but I could be wrong), it seems to have been glued in, and I wonder if anyone has any advice for how I might remove the support in order to clean up and subsequently re-attach it? I am taking the opportunity to clean up the rest of the Landing gear frame too, which does not display any other issues.
I have attached the diagram and a photo to show what I am looking at, although it is difficult to see the crack. Any advice would be gratefully received.
All the Best
Rob
