Ring, rubber – pilot bulb holder
A rubber sealing ring for the pilot bulb holder in the headlamp shell.
This is a small rubber ring that seals the pilot bulb holder in the headlamp shell. It shows up in the electrical equipment sections of the parts books, tied to headlamp assemblies including Fastback, Fastback L.R., Roadster, Interpol, and Interstate listings. It keeps moisture and dirt out around the pilot light socket where it passes through the headlamp shell.

It's a Lucas electrical part, sized to fit around the bulb holder body so the holder seats snug against the shell. Given how often these show up in the parts books across several headlamp variants, it's a part worth having on hand if you're pulling the headlamp apart or chasing a damp, corroded pilot bulb socket.
One of the other catalogs lists this same part under the name gasket rather than ring, so if you're searching under either term you're looking at the same physical piece.
