Not cork.
I will be ditching my double thick cork for some molded/crushless rubber ones and RTV in the bolt holes.
Expensive option at 40$/pair but corl leaks.
This is on perimiter bolt covers, centerbolt are much better controlling leaks.

Rubber with the steel frame in the center. They don't leak and they last forever.
