Desperately Seeking Sansin...late 80s hub dust caps

for my 1988 SM600 rescue that still has unique 24" rear wheel. I need to repack hubs front and back but the delicate rubber caps are deteriorated and not usable. Anybody out there find these guys or viable snap in replacement? I think Sansin is no more. Are the front vs rear hub dust caps same spec? 6spd Freewheel is pretty bad but the old did-compe thumb shifters are too period cool to upgrade! Thanks for any friendly advice on this one!

I am not an expert on these hubs by any means. I believe some SunTour hubs were made by Sansin. I have numerous NOS SunTour hubs from the same general era. I don't remember the rubber bits but will try to remember to look at some of the hubs I have on hand. PM or bump the thread if you don't hear from me. A better close up photo might help me know what to look for.
