M51 float material

Could somebody help identify the material this float is made of. It came out of a M51 on a UL. It is tight to get in and out of the bowl, so i think it is incorrect or swollen. It feels like some type of

Just for Posterity, Folks,..

This showed up in the fossil record in a very late Chief, similar in appearance, but not urethane:

Cotton doesn’t plug his floats on this site but I will. They’re second to none and many of us will recommend them.
