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.

just use some high temp silicone on assembly and it stops the leak no rubber needed

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.
