I looked at the images in the gallery from Hazet guy but that isn't where my

Here you go James.  Step by step by Hazet guy on the Samba.  And the seal is 
available from Bus Boys for less than 
$5. http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/album_search.php?search_keywords=Bus+Steering+Box+Seal+Replacement
 
 
 
Also, here is the seal

The Samba is your friend.
