I was going to replace it, but have some questions.
1> I can get to the back of the vent from the inside easily
2> What is that "mastic" around it, is is easy enough to remove
and what should I use to replace it with (sealant)
3> As the vent goes straight to the dryer, is there an issue with just leaving it as is?
4> Are the connections to connect to the air duct tubing a standard ?
TIA

I believe it is standard 4" opening. You can get one at Lowes or Home Depot. While you at it you should check what type of duct is connected to dryer. If its flexible duct they collect lots of dust and could cause a fire. They sell standard 4" sheet metal duct work there also which can be put together,so the lint wont get caught on. Or just get new flexible one.
