I'm not sure what OEM material is, but Viton has good chemical resistance and can withstand a wide range of operating temperature.

rear main seal

Sounds like Viton is a better way to go than rubber seals.The rear main seal is offered in Viton also fromFEL-PRO.at fourty dollars it is pricey but rear seals are a bunch of work.thanks.
