S65 Valve Cover Bolts Rubber Grommet - Alternatives

Saw some talk about using m62tu grommets so that the bolts can be re-used when doing valve covers.

I bought a few sets to examine and these are my findings:

Left: Original S65
Middle: 11121721879 - M62tu
Right: 11121437395 - M62tu









My thoughts: None of them fit like the original. The ID of the middle one is too small and not able to fit over the S65 bolt easily. The OD of both are too large.

Outcome: I won't be using these, I ordered $243 worth of S65 valve cover bolts.
