Transmission Inspection pan

[bambamshere]

What is everyone using to seal up inspection pan for transmission? There was some black glue type stuff on it before that was past it due date 50 some odd years back. I was thinking of getting some tape that has some sticky stuff on both side for it but not sure if that would do the job. I don't know if they still make. I know my Grandfather and Father had some at one point. But there both gone now and can't ask where they got it from.

 

What do you all think?

it doesn’t need to be a true seal, it was intended to keep dust out.  the original was felt.  i’ve run my truck at times without the bottom cover of the clutch housing.  still has the remnants of the felt.

I've used carpet jute twice now with great results

I used self-adhered foam tape.
