Front Outer CV Joint Dust Seal ('90/16")

Ay up,
I'm servicing the front driveshafts and cv's while they're off the Doka. The dust seal (not cv gator) which sits in the outer cv joint is looking a bit ropey. And of course the only place to get them will be VW Commercial. I struggle to get the right part numbers for 'out of the norm' stuff, so I use VAGCAT but the drawings can be a little vague sometimes.
Sorry, had a bit of a waffle then, does anyone know the part number for the dust seal on a 1990 16" Doka Front Outer CV?
Is there any other means of getting the part numbers out there (the bloke at VW is a right miserable old git, he hates it when I ring up to order 50p circlips that have to be shipped in from Germany :D .
Cheerz

Searched ETKA but cant find a reference to a dust seal on the drive shafts.

Get yourself a copy of ETKA. Loads of people on here have them

Try http://www.aidantalbot.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; under more stuff, Aidan is showing a replacement, doesn't say if it 14" or 16" though.

No ETKA is the VW parts system itself

Now is this 'dust seal' a black rubber ring about 3" in diameter? If it is then the part number is 251 407 328. Probably NLA

Give Aidan a call

Yep, that's the fella, I seals against the inner face of the wheel bearing housing. Not hot on the acronyms, however, NLA - No Longer Available I guess???
