Default Mystery rubber seal???

I have searched and searched called numerous places and also called Tick and talked to Martin which he will be in on this thread at some point but could anyone tell me where to get this seal? I removed the tailshaft housing to replace the output shaft bushing and this seal was inside the tailshaft on the output shaft. No one seems to know what it is! I am at a stand still until i can find this piece.




Any help would be greatly appreciated!

That is the rubber seal that Borg Warner/Tremec used to seal the transmission when they pre-fill the trans with fluid at the factory. Then when they install the driveshaft it pushes that plug up into the transmission. It does nothing after the original installation of the trans at the factory. You can pitch it out.
