On the westy vanagon you have the foam sealed entry for the lp gas lines,
the gasket around the sink drain pipe, the battery box vent area, the
battery box cable entry if its grommet is worn, the shifter boot area, the
rubber grommet that may be missing under the closet area and then under the
rear folding bed seat there are sometime plugs to stuff that didn�t get
added.
