Actually Sugru probably would be good for this application. It's probably a bit firmer than the original rubber grommet, once it's set, but still fairly flexible. It can be quite difficult to make something that's neat and not full of finger impressions though. Ideally you would need to make some sort of mould first.

And remember to store it in the fridge for longer shelf life:
