Do what you want but considering the high condition of that gun, I'd clean underneath that hammer without removing anything. It's possible you might damage something and that hammer is a wedge fit on the axle(?). Every time it gets removed and replaced the potential for it to get loose increases.

Sound advice for sure, best to leave well enough alone. “Do no harm” resonates with me. If it was broken internally it would require attention. Since it functions well it would be advisable to not take unnecessary risks.
Thank you George!
