Mamiya C330 focus screen help

Today I was lucky and scored a Mamiya C330 and C220 in a trade for some other gear. The 330 seems to be in excellent condition but has one problem I found while cleaning it. The foam between the focusing screen and the holder had turned to both a black dust and goo. I want to replace it but the foam seems thinner than that I have used for light seals for camera backs. Does anyone know where to get replacement foam for it or what the thickness should be. This is my go to place to get help. The C220 is in decent working condition, but has a bunch of wear. They both have 80mm lenses, so I'm debating selling the 220 to finance another lens. Thanks in advance for any help.

Thankfully, the Mamiya TLRs didn't have the strap lugs that made later RB67 models difficult to "strap." Whatever your choice, make sure you get a well-padded neck/shoulder pad. The TLRs aren't light.

Thanks again. I ordered light seals for the camera body and focus screen and they should arrive tomorrow. Hopefully, I can take it out next weekend.
