At the sake of telling granny how to suck eggs,

The useful numbers should be printed on the opposite face to that you've photo'd, or on the outer edge.

Measurements would be awesome though, we need to support the aftermarket parts guys, but having the information around in case financially they can't keep helping us is vital.

With all the things on my mind, I had forgotten this, thanks. Here are pics of both sides of the seal:

Thanks to all for the help. My friend has now put the new seal in, no leak now. What is interesting is that the car has only done a very low mileage from new and the original seal was not in quite straight. He measured it and got these figures: 58.3 mm x 38.2mm x 9.6mm.

He brought the original seal here and although very slightly distorted through not been fitted in quite square, looks like if was now fitted in correctly, it would be OK.
