Not sure about the metal/leather seal, only ever heard of the rubber ones, maybe a IH specific item? At any rate the cap has to be specificly machined to take a seal- the T14 & IIRC later T90 caps have a thicker casting where the tube goes in to facilitate fitting the seal, theres not enough material there on the regular T90 cap.
