Don't have any myself but you can try two areas I can think of; 

1. the ring from a turbo unit in a car. You'd get that new o'course at a car parts store. 
They're orange rubber, come in different sizes & deal with high heat well.

2. the glass part of coleman / coleman type camp lights. They're different sizes. If 
needed, a high temp "O" ring can help seal at the top. 

As for the clips, the last amp I helped make I formed 1/2 of the female part of a metal 
kitchen cabinet latch to hold the chimney. Unless one would turn the amp upside 
down & shake it, the latches worked fine.
