Thats not my damper.  I just used to stock damper provided with my RD-1B.
It is simply bolted to my aftermarket flywheel with the RD-1B provided
bolts.  The holes in the fly wheel were put there by a machine shop, and
the rubber dampers I have also been replaced with home-made silicone
dampers cut from silicone sheet.  The silicone lasts longer and is somewhat
stiffer than the rubber, everything seems to be holding up well.

Not sure where the one in the picture is from.  Perhaps Tracy's
modification?
