Funny you should ask this. I have used a piece of inner tube as a temporary fix..Stapled the ends with a stapler and but that towards the front of the car out of sight.

FWIW I recently got a new one from VP with some other parts and the dimension of a new or repro one is about 1/16" thick; 1-1/4" wide and ID unstretched fits over a glass (cylinder) 1-5/8". Couldn't estimate durometer.

Also, if your heater bladder is deformed where this rubber sleeve slips on, and the rubber is old, hard, shrunk, it'll tend to pop off. You might be able to heat the plastic bladder and reform - I had another better one, so I haven't tried doing that.
