Who sell the new rubber sleeves that were brought out recently to stop oil spitting out of the rear slip joint on JL3 pipes, I can find them on ebay but they come to about £14 with postage. Sure i've seen them advertised somewhere for about £7.

You need one that has different sizes at either end. The tube on the silencer part is smaller than the main pipe it fits into.
