Is it possible to replace the fiber fill in the oil cap/breather ('66 383)? If so what do you use? If not, where do I find a replacement?

I should have mentioned most of the fiber is gone. And I drive dusty roads.
I don't think there is a way to replace the fiber fill in the cap, and the replacement caps (from NAPA, etc.) are not correct. I think that if you run a lot of solvent repeatedly from your parts washer in and through the cap, and then hit it with compressed air, you should be good to go. I did this with the cap on my '66, repainted the cap turquoise, and it looks like new.
any part store should have them i could cut a rubber gasket for it i have done that in the pastIs it possible to replace the fiber fill in the oil cap/breather ('66 383)? If so what do you use? If not, where do I find a replacement?
