Potterton boiler window seal

[dal5band]

Boiler : Potterton RS80 Kingfisher 2 - approx 1999 vintage.
Over the years, the white fibre seal around the little glass window has disintegrated. The window must have been removed in the past to light the pilot - the metal frame and glass are held by two screws.

What can I use to re-seal around the glass - need some sort of heatproof fibre mat or thin board that I can use to frame the glass ?
Can't use exhaust paste as the frame is suppopsed to be removable.

Why not use the proper part.

Two seals are req'd for that sight glass i believe. One goes in front and one goes behind the glass.
