Headrace Bearing Seal H1

Does anyone know whether the lower seal on the steering stem is a part that can be sourced?

I'm replacing my head race bearings after having the frame powder coated and the bearing kit I sourced doesn't come with seals and having spoken to Kawasaki, Wemoto, M&P and several other people no bearing kits available include seals. Also Kawasaki don't list it as a separate part and it's not listed on the microfiche, very odd.

There luckily doesn't seem to be too much wear on the seal on the steering stem so if I can't find a replacement hopefully plenty of grease will keep dirt off the new bearings.

Ideas anyone?

A lot of H1 parts are no longer available and as rubber parts perish naturally over time you cant hoard stock like you can mechanical parts.

The H2 (33x47x2.5) and L seals (43x55x4) seals are still available, does it look like either of these would be the correct size?
