KZ1000 alternator rotor red rubber thing...

Hi all, 
another detail question:
the red rubbery thing on my alternator rotor is partially loose and gone.
Is that an issue, and if so how do I fix that please ?

Let it be as it is, there is nothing you have to worry about it. The epoxy glue do crack on the edges of the magnets first. It´s a normal aging process....

Shouldn't be a problem, but the missing stuff likely ended up where mine did:
