Mine was a full wide neoprene gasket.

 

Here's a pic of the old one that was rotted.

Mike,

 

My existing gasket is 7.25 x 54.25.  I didn't examine the possibility of using narrower material--is that what you used?

 

Thanks,

 

Mike

Currently none of the rubber sheeting on Amazon or McMaster-Carr are the right size for the gasket.  Has anyone found another option?  Stan is incommunicado recently.

Sorry, that’s not the one I used. If you look that up on Amazon they come in a wide variety of sizes and thickness. I listed that so you could get the brand name.
