It sounds as if the vulcanisation of the rubber may have deteriorated. Here is more than you probably would ever want to know about vulcanisation . The breakdown of the sulphur bonds can be caused by bacteria, according to Wikipedia.
BTW, I once renovated an old reel-to-reel tape machine where the drive-belts could be rolled-up between the fingers into sticky round blobs!
None of this bodes well for a solution. I would take the advice of those who suggest replacement.

I normally use Isopropyl, 90%, which you should not, underany circumstances, drink, although it is a good stove fuel for a Trangia or like apparatus.By alcohol do you mean several cans of beer?
