340hp Marine Power Water Pump Impeller Bracket Bush

Changing the water pump impeller this weekend, I found the little rubber bush that sits in the bracket that holds the water pump from spinning was worn quite badly. I am struggling getting sizes off it but does anyone know whether you can order new ones of these or do people just make there own up.

You can make one out of a piece of heater hose.

I have tried everywhere for this rubber flanged bush. I have even tried Indmar and no one carries it. Its pretty poor when you have to modify a piece of heater hose to replace a simple wearing part.
