The lining behind the water bottle has deteriorated over time. Does anybody know the part number? Or am I better off just removing it and replacing it with some generic stuff (any ideas?).

Looks like rodent damage as I have seen this many times before
I thought so first as well, but when I touched the (seemingly ok) black parts on the right, I felt it sticking like I know these foam things can stick when they get older. I think time and heat have had a go at it... Your's is still ok?

I will check if there are other signs of possible rodents.

I had another look. I think some coolant has spilled on the insulation/lining and has sped up the deterioration. I can mostly piece together the parts, little seems to be missing. The cap of the coolant bottle might not close fully or so? I’ll check this. But I still need to get some new lining.
