Not sure what they call the tape that covers the hinge but any type of weather proof material should work, just make sure it's not glued to the hinge

Thanks guys. It's like a hard plastic but somehow flexed on the hinge line. Maybe it got hard over 25 years? It looks like there was a line of it on the cabin door as well along the screws. I think I'm going to do teflon tape. /shrug
