Carb/airbox rubber bobbin

Can anyone advise the size or even where I can get one of the rubber cotton reel bobbin mounts that fixes to the carbs and helps to dampen the air box and fuel line? Mine has long since disintegrated. I don't imagine they are hard to find but have no idea on the size.

the original thread is 1/4 unf, unsure of the thickness of the rubber but I believe it is about the 1/2 area,

I dont know the size, but Peugeot and Citroen use similar on the plastic cover that sits on top of the engine under the bonnet so might fit?
Cheers, Tony.

The Sprint one is the same as the 1850 : UKC2451. In fact its a very common Triumph part on the Stag / 2000 / TR% /TR6 etc; etc; Moss have them currently.

Or fit club solid alloy mounts, no need for the bobbin. (well, on an 1850 for sure, dunno about Sprint?)
