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.
