The new one DOES have a rubber seal/'o' ring on the bottom of the piston, The bottom of the piston is also flat unlike the one in the above picture,

I will quite happily go take mine out and take a picture.

I have copied this pis from Audi-Sport, It clearly shows the seal/'o' ring on the base of the piston.
I can still get a pic of mine if preferred.

Makes sense, the O ring will seal better than metal
