Default 1990 Front Hub Seals?

Working on assembling the front suspension on my '90 ZR1...the Timken replacements I bought have no seal included, and there were none in place when I pulled the suspension apart. The '91's had a complete sealed unit...not like the '90 setup at all.

Where do I get this seal? Or can any O-ring seal that fits to diameter of the machined recess and large enough in diameter to squish under compression when I torque the hub assemblies to the uprights?

GM # 14087633 for original.- At this time I'd buy something 'off the shelf' that is a fit. I've never seen dimensions mentioned.
