The princess calipers have a small square section o ring type seal that sits
in a recess on one half of the body around the fluid port between the two
halves.  No other sealing required as the only fluid is through this port.

I just took the old bolts in to a fastener place and got unbrako allen set
screws the relevant thread and length.

When I did my princess calipers I was converting them for use with vented
discs on an escort so I had to make up a spacer plate, fit a second seal and
use longer bolts.  Took bl**dy ages to cut the spacer plates out of 10mm
steel with an angle grinder then about 3 months later Rally Design started
selling kits to do it.  Bummer.
