Barrie,
I don't know if this rope was how the seal was originally made because
every MG I have owned except one came without any kind of seal (long rotted
away probably). My 67BGT was in fairly well preserved condition and did
have the rubber rope installed, making me think that a seal actually
belonged there.
So now I have also put one on my 72B but I used a glue that was similar to
Elmers, sparingly just to hold the seal in place. I figure the glue did not
matter so long as it was not visible and could be easily scraped away if
the need arose.
