Part number wanted for grommet (if it has one)

Hi guys does anyone know if there is a part number for the rubber grommet that is fitted in the engine cover underneath the oil filler cap? Just noticed today after cleaning mine up its split nearly all the way around. It's a 2009 2.7tdv6.

Can you get a replacement bit of foam that goes under the engine cover ?

Not sure about the gromets (I would like some new ones to be honest), but the foam only comes with a full new cover (stupid expensive for what it is!)

I bought some of this stuff to replace the damaged foam:

Remove the large one way washers (I tried to save as much of the existing insulation as possible and stuck this stuff over the top) lay the mat into the cover and cut to size (leave the backing paper on until ready to stick down, this stuff sticks like nobodies business!), it's considerably thinner than the original foam, so I layered the replacement matting to bulk it up (like I said I tried to save my existing foam but had areas that had dropped off these were the areas where I layered the mat). I'll get some pictures later today.

I can't say that I noticed any real difference, but then it can be hard to see improvement until you revert to the old version.

The matting has held up well though, I've not had any funny smells or fires so win win Rolling with laughter Thumbs Up
