Default CG8 Steering issue

Guys i have done a bit of a search and checked the car only to find that the grommet in the fire wall surrounding the steering wheel column has popped out onto engine bay side.

This has caused the problem of a slightly loose steering column. The previous owner just jammed some rubber in to the gap to stop the movement.

1. Has anyone heard of this happening?
2. Anyone here fixed it, anything to look out for?
3. 34361FC000, is this the correct part number?

I'm aware that there are a few people on here to that can help with parts.

any advice would be very helpful.

Happened to me a couple of different times on different Subi's, I just pushed it back into place & it stayed, you could try cleaning the area with some prepsol & using some sikaflex to hold it in place.......allowing time to dry.
