You probably know this already Tom but although the seal looks like rubber it should be made from viton rubber as modern fuels are more lethal concoctions of chemicals than ever. I have had issues with my tank cap leaking on track days and bought a filler cap just to get the seal off it.
Good luck with your search.

Subject: [Quantum Owners] Fuel tank levels


Hi all,
I've recently had my 2+2 tank out to fit a new level sender for my VDO gauges. In calibrating the level, I noticed with 35 litres in the tank the fluid sits just level with the bottom of the filler hole, meaning there is a fair bit of "air" still left in the tank (about 10cm). Is it normal to have an air space at the top of a fuel tank?

Also, the rubber ring which seals the filler pipe to the tank is hard (26 years old!) so was wondering if any of you bright sparks knew of any "gunk" which is fuel safe which I could use to seal it?
If not, is this seal still available new, or an alternative?

Cheers, Tom
