I do not know if it would work, but one source of adhesive-backed foam in small sizes (1/2 inch by 1/4 inch, for example) is weatherstripping, sold in packages of several feet for about $5 at Home Depot and similar stores. They have high density and low density; I would guess you want the low-density.

Regarding tape cleaning, I do not know if there is a feasible way to do such a thing with hundreds of feet of video tape, and keep it in/get it back in the cassette properly.

I wish you luck getting this going. Let us know if you succeed, or if you have further questions.
