Erm, well I fitted the brand new ones that came in the bag. They where oiled too so no obvious signs of drying out, cracking or other failure.

TBH they look like they are just cut off a length of pipe, so i suspect if you find the right ID/OD rubber hose and cut a piece off, finding replacement seals shouldn't be that hard.

That earthing block is magic, it even earths the telephone line in my house!

It doesn't earth pin 3 on the heater control PCB though, despite the Haynes BOL saying it does!

Bit like the LHM pipe seals then, they are blatently just cut from a length of hose.

I guess once the children with the 7" fingers had finished putting exhaust manifolds onto cars, they had to do something. Clearly this was cutting up pipe for seals.
