chicago rawhide might be able to come up with something also. i would think you would have to give them some dimensions to work with, and you would have to work with one of their vendors.
yes, it is a front seal for a 455. I have them in stock.

nailheads forever
I've used the rope front seal and rear seal for the last 20 tears and have never had a problem or a leak with them. If they are carefully installed with the joint at the 2 o'clock or 10 o'clock position they will work perfectly.

I have also used these for years with no problems, and they never wear the sealing area like rubber seals do.
