The main body portion includes a sealing section made of an elastomeric material and having a passage portion defining a passage for receiving a fill tube. The passage portion is flanked on opposing sides by first and second portions of elastomeric material. The passage portion is in a stretched state relative to the first and second portions, such that the passage portion curls along the passage when the fill tube is removed.
