There is an outfit that has been around for many decades you may not heard of; (Metro Moulded Parts) who offer several types of extrusions and hollow foam rubber gaskets. Their inventory doesn't seem to be what it used to be, but I am looking in to getting something from them to "cut-and-paste" onto my old gaskets, perhaps after doing some dissection of a portion of the existing gasket. UNLESS somebody has a better idea, as doing this will be very difficult.
