I would say the metal puck centers the rubbercup in the bore to seal. My opinion is good luck

the metal is the piston, the rubber is the seal - the outer rubber boot is the 'safety' - if there's any wetness outside it, you need new inner rubber cup, or new cylinders - the rubber can't seal a rough/scored surface
