Default AU 5.0L trans exhaust mount rubbers

Any former AU mechanics out there ?

Following are pics of the rod that runs across the rear of the trans and goes to either side to support the exhaust. What are missing is the rubbers that wrap around the rod where it passes thru the 2 hangers. I believe the rubbers are spilt on one side so they can be opened to slide over the rod between the hangers before being pushed into the hangers.

Mine had disintergrated due to the presence of trans fluid that had leaked mainly from the speedo sender and also buggered the rear mount which I replaced.

A Ford parts guy says the rod and associated parts were listed as one assembly but is NLA.

Is anyone aware of rubbers that were possibly used on other models (not necessarily for the same purpose) that would fit ? and a part number if possible.

I have jammed some garden hose in there for the time being but would like to get the correct parts
