Is there any type of plastic or rubber piece that goes on the latch and other part pictured?

There is a plastic bushing/cap that goes on the pivot shown in the top photo.

Yea, the top bushing is NLA, been meaning to measure mine and remake...maybe I will actually do it now.
The second picture does not actually have a bushing, but in the latch thats on the body, a rubber bumper acts as the bushing/cushion to keep the latch silent. This is also NLA, so you would have to either find another latch and take the bumpers off or put a piece of rubber hose where the bumper usually goes.

Yeah I need to find a source for those rubber bumpers for the latch. Maybe a little piece of rubber tubing slid over the end?

Yea thats the play usually. I found a couple spare latches and stole the bumpers off them. I ran rubber hose over the latch initially and it worked until I got the replacement bumpers.
That reminds me, been meaning to throw some tubing on my rear seat to quiet things down.
Anyone have a picture of the oem part?

Mine wore through and was driving me nuts. I had a gutter spike that had a plastic sheath so I cut that to fit and split the sheath on one side to slip over. No more noise. Here is what I used.
