Bruce, not trying to hijack the thread but where did you buy your seals?
The seal that you and Pete seem to be referring to is missing on mine, the few bits that are remaining are like Bakelite!
You can actually see the track in question in pic #3.

Also Pete, are you saying these seals are fed in through the notch in the middle of the retaining track?
