Yeah, use that Ebay one. It's much better than the original. The Ebay one is made out of some kind of rubber,the original one appears to be made out of some kind of soft foam which eventually crumbles to dust.
The ebay one was easy to fit with some mk1 spittle lube and pipe wrench type pliers, but only if you assemble in the correct order. I think the bush needs fitting into the lever before the cable is fitted to the bush which ISTR being counter intuitive at the time.
The cable feels nice and secure in the Ebay bush and I haven't noticed any downside.
