Some guys have mentioned using Triumph or MGB diaphragms but wanted to post on this forum of anyone that has knowledge and who can steer me in the correct direction as I want to maintain what I repair as original as possible.

If anyone who reads this has solutions or a vendor please post or send me a DM, it is much appreciated. Once I source this missing part I want to create a thread on Club Cobra showing the restoration process I am undertaking on the interior to maintain the original worn vintage look all around which will not be easy but I have done this before on other high end vintage cars ive restored.
Moss Motors lists them for multiple makes. MGB: https://mossmotors.com/281-828-seat-cushion-diaphragm
