They look like A&H, but a link to a picture, and this list will remove all 
doubt.

The gaskets that A&H used are EPDM foam cord.   This can be purchased in 3ft, 
10ft, or 100ft lengths from McMaster-Carr at “non-marine” prices.  The 
Landfall 38 hatches use 3/8” diameter foam cord  for the small head/galley 
and 1/2” diameter cord for the larger A&H hatches.  For the small hatches 
which were repaired first,  I used the A&H recommended Silaprene Adhesive to 
glue in the gaskets.    When I later replaced the gaskets for the larger A&H 
hatches, I used Dow 795 as the gasket adhesive.   Since I  was using the Dow 
795 for reseating a new hatch lens, I saved on gasket adhesive costs.   The Dow 
795 worked just as good if not better than the Silaprene Adhesive.     I highly 
recommend Dow 795 as the gasket adhesive over the Silaprene.  One pay a premium 
for Silaprene as it is not common and very limited in availability whereas a 
10oz cartridge of Dow 795 cost $12 at McMaster-Carr.
