The Sandvik 15247328 seal housing does the same job on the older HL560 series and the newer RDX5. It sits in the front head of the rock drill, holds the guide rings (two of them) in the middle, and threads on one end. The part is precision cast and CNC machined, so it goes in without fuss and keeps flushing air or water where it belongs.

Installation instructions (from Sandvik Maintenance Manual).
the seal housing guide rings (2) 2 pcs must be replaced when the flushing air or water escapes from the sides of the seal housing, and they should be checked whenever the shank is changed. Seals are easier to install when they are lubricated. Install the new flushing housing seals making sure they face the right direction (shown in the figure). The use of a spare flushing housing is recommended, as it speeds up on-site maintenance of the rock drill.
The flushing housing seals must be installed the correct way according the type of flushing
