Hmm we have injection molding capabilities here at work I'll have to add 
that to the list of things I want to make before I leave here in a 
couple of weeks.  

If it works I could make a very small batch of extras.  I'll keep the 
list posted.

  I've talk with the machinist at the University here and he suggested 
making
  a mould with the original rubber gaskets with a block of PVC in two 
  halves.  Once the mould in made one can then use heated exterior 
silicone
  or urathane caulking to fill the mould.  But make sure to spray the 
inside
  of the mould with PAM or similar product so the caulking wil not stick 
to
  the mould.
