When making a wing bone call or even a cane yelper where would one get that mouth piece, the piece that would bump up to your lips. Are the black ones a piece of neoprene ? Some look like they are carved out or cork.

Some makers use a rubber stopper sanded down to shape on their lathe. Cheap and easy can be a black faucet washer. You can use a natural cork. All of these are pretty easy.

There are actually some for sell in the trumpet turkey call section on ebay. Never seen that before.

You can turn rubber stoppers, or cork rounds or EVA foam on a lathe or drill using sandpaper to form the shape.
I used the beveled faucet washers for years and they are the easiest and work well.
