It's the same seal. But rather than replacing the seal - which some list 
members have reported trouble getting - I just stuffed 11" of flat RJ-11 
phone cord into the groove on the seal. The end result is the same: The 
seal seals...

I do not as I don't have a digital camera and didn't see any reason getting 
the macro setup for my film camera out to document this.... The procedure 
is very simple. I published it on the list earlier today.
