You want open cell foam.  Never rely on an LLM getting the facts right.

Most rubber formulations are slightly denser than water.  However open
cell foam may retain sufficient air to reduce the average density to
less than that of water.  If that turns out to be a problem try
attaching the foam to something such as a rubber anti-skid mat.

Have you considered using a folded up towel?
