A  combination of events - hole in the floor by brake pedal,accumulation

leak,  etc, had destroyed the cork pad on the drivers side. It needs to
be  replaced.

Any suggestions as to how to approach this: whole new pad (if  one can be
found) , substitute other materials. How about cutting up some  of the
hard foam rubber flooring that you can get at HF, gluing it  together
into a new form fitting pad?

Just fishing for solutions  here.
