Frank, if there is a problem as you describe, here is the solution:
http://cgi.ebay.com/New-Metal-43mm-Vented-Lens-Hood-Cap-50mm-F1-4-RF-Leica_W0QQitemZ110409215004QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLens_Accessories?hash=item19b4e6ec1c&_trksid=p4634.c0.m14.l1262

I have one of those on my Summilux 50mm, and it is excellent.
