Yeah it is pretty sucky. The EPA banned the use of "asbestos" in all motor vehicles in the mid 1980s. Then the asbestos manufacturing industry petitioned congress to overturn the ban since no other material could be found to replace the asbestos material without great cost to U.S. manufacturing...
Remember don't breathe in any of that dust ! The asbestos industry got the EPA to reverse the ban on using asbestos in brakes and clutches about 10 years ago. You don't hear about it much but it's back in there.
