Angelo, when I overhauled mine I found remnants of rather thin o-
rings in the bezel. I found some in the Ace hardware store in the
plumbing section (sprinkler repair parts, I think) that were thin
enough but slightly too large in diameter. Since a complete seal is
not necessary, I cut out a section to make it fit. That worked
perfectly. It is lot less messy than some sort of liquid sealer.
