Jean

I believe that you have this the wrong way around. The originals were made
up of some sort of string impregnated with lead. As you say once used
by plumbers. The original shape was a circular cylinder shape with ends
shaped to fit into the beveled carburetor body on one side and a similar
shape to the clamping ring. The leaded string was then forced tight when
the plate was tightened.

'O' rings are supplied now but are not always a tight fit. Lead is not a
favored material these days

Jean,

John Harper is 100% correct, over the past 30+ years I've worked on many
original BN1/2/100M manifolds (10+) and they ALL had this packing string
type packing material material and NONE with a rubber seal.

Cheers,

Curt

Thanks guys, I was wrong in this case for sure, I have some of this stuff a=

Hi Jean -

That is pump gland seal and it is correct.  You can buy the seal at a
plumbing shop or online.
