"I have a new volvo penta prop

"I have a new volvo penta prop that I am installing. It is model #3817468. The old prop model number was 3850301. The old prop had a rubber hub at the base of the prop that went against the thrust bushing, however the new prop that I ordered does not have this rubber hub and it doesn't seem as though there is enough room for a rubber hub. Does the new model not require this rubber hub or is that something that I need to purchase? I can't get the rubber hub out from the old prop either. Thanks for any help or suggestions."
 
My new prop had a plastic hub

My new prop had a plastic hub that I purchased with it...My VP prop has a rubber hub that is pressed in by the factory...After-market props have hubs so the prop will fit more applictions
