Look at liquidresearch.com

They are based in Bangor in North Wales. They have a pdf catalogue on their website listing various types of ferrofluids for loudspeaker applications.

I have never bought from them, but when I have been looking into ferrofluids before they always seem to be the best company in the UK.

There are two different base oils, you need to find out if the original was ester based, or hydrocarbon based.
 
If you pick the wrong one the adhesives in the driver will fail.
 
If the driver was not designed for FF it may not be possible to use FF as some of the adhesives inside may good with one type, and bad with the other, meaning no matter which type you use you will have failures.
