I agree with Nick, in 40 odd years of messing about with various 1930's Lucas starter motors I've never come across one with a gasket beneath the inspection cover band - they never had them from new. I've always used a light dusting of dry powdered graphite on an absolutely clean and dry Bendix quickthread - you can buy small puffer bottles for lubricating locks from good hardware stores / ebay / amazon etc.
Personally I'd fit a new starter switch if you haven't already done so - The Seven Workshop have them in stock AE0334 for £33.60
