James,

I wish I could answer this for you, but I am limited by a bad memory.  I just
pulled an airbox which I renewed years ago and the damper gasketing shows no
signs of queefing out.  Unfortunately, for the life of me I can't remember
where I found the soft foam scrim which I used.  The material is a dark gray
color and about 1/8" thick.

As I said before, at one time replacement gaskets were available from the
dealer.  Perhaps someone with an installed copy of the EKTA will do us all a
favor and chime in with the part numbers.
