Mikuni RS34 Throttle Shaft Packing/ Seal

Anyone find a source for this part? Seems N/A, can't find anything but one used one on Feebay. Anyone been there and found a part that works?
Its #47 in the exploded view, part #Packing, shaft VM28/174. Looks like 6 would be required as the two ends have plugs, is that correct?
Thanks.

I've got emails out to 3 different ones, including Sudco. Haven't heard anything back yet. But the Part on all of the sites comes back as N/A. So I'm hoping someone might have run across this already and have an alternative part that will fit. I'll see about measuring the shaft and the bore where it fits, and try doing something by size.
I just got these used of course, and the PO had the shaft out, and now there are no seals. :angry:

Thanks for the contact, I'll give them a call shortly. So far Sudco and the others have said that Mikuni doesn't make those anymore. Seems strange as they are selling brand new racks of these carbs currently. Maybe I'll have to make something fit to get it sealed up, by dimension. I'll measure it up tonight and see if anything appears with those dimensions.
I also let the Feebay seller know that they are missing, maybe he still has them? Just a shot in the dark.

Thanks for the replies guy's. I'll see about making some phone calls tomorrow.
I got a message back from the Feebay seller saying he knows a guy with asome parts and might be able to help also. We'll see about that one. He says he sold them just as he got them, so it wasn't him who had them apart.

Well I have found that these are just that, Packing, not a seal. So I don't think they are as critical as I would have thought. Not going to seal up against the shaft like a normal seal would. Must be more for dust/ dirt than any vacuum in the slide area. The shaft is 10mm and the bore is 12.97mm. Could probably find some seals for it at the stockist.
