You can make the seals out of (silicone) hose (Ø10mm id), one end cut to an angle.

Great idea - any knowledge of what the thread size is as the nuts are both missing?

Thanks
Rob

I'm pretty sure it's M10x0.75, which is strange because all other threads on a 95/96/97, apart from the engine, are imperial. M10x0.75 is a common size for lock nuts. If I measure with my imperial thread gauges I get 34tpi, which is an odd one.
