No, sorry I did not explain it very well. In the photo, the underside of the top of the reel table is shown on the right, as looking at the photo (this is the part in question).
There is 3.5mm wide circular groove on the inside of the outer felt ring. the groove is a few mm deep. The outer diameter of the groove is around 68mm
and the inner diameter around 60mm.
The groove is filled with the grey substance, I assume it is something that had decomposed due to age ?
