Distributor Seal Kit? 200 1988

1988 240 N/A with 300k miles. Oil was inside the distributor cap. On removal and inspection, the two outer oil seals are rigid.

I checked FAQs.

FCP Euro no longer sells the oil seal kit. The Honda part is available for $8.95 that fits on the inside of the distributor. Ebay only sells 1988 740 distributor oil seal kits, which I believe are mounted to the camshaft, not the intermediate shaft in the front, like on my Volvo. Plus, the aftermarket are black; according to the FAQs, a Volvo TSB recommended the green elastomer version for better durability.

Any ideas on getting the seal kit?

Thanks
