72 W108 4.5 - Rubber Boot Cover for ECU

Does anyone know if the rubber boot for the ECU/ECM that is located behind the right front headlight is available?

My mechanic is replacing worn out rubber boots and is not able to source this part.

I am going to email Tom Hanson at the Classic Center as well, but thought I might ask here as well.

thank you.

Update:

I managed to find one on Ebay which was in pretty good condition. Tom said they are no longer produced and suggested Ebay.

Thanks for the info on the other models. I assume that the W116 450se/sel used the same boot cover, since its basically the same engine as the W108 4.5.

I look in W116s and r107s and neither had a boot like my w108. I don't remember on the w116, but the 107 had the ECU inside the cabin and had no boot.
I finally found a usable boot on a w108 in a salvage yard.
