Is it possible?

No, you cant. Not without cutting out hunks of metal from your bolt, which would probably end up making it useless anyway. The foamie would get in the way of the feeding balls if you just tried to glue it onto the boltface.

Exactly. Think about it, when you let a ball roll into the chamber there's not that much room between the ball and the bolt if any at all. Now if you put a foamie that gas a thickness of say a couple millimeters/1/16". That would cause problems, because the ball can't roll in the chamber freely.

Sure you can.
One minor problem though.
You will chop every ball :)
