Greeting fellow Oil Burners,
Looking for the "O" ring above. Naturally the hat is 'glued' (?) down to the manifold by the PO and I hope I can knock it loose with a hammer stick and not break it. It is not squarely seated on the turbo exhaust and I suspect it will in fact suffer a pressure loss. So, I am looking for an 'O' ring once I get to taking it apart. that will be after I get it running just to be able to move it.
Thank you for your time!

Russrepair.com has the reseal kits. If you PM @typ4 he may sell that one separately I'm not sure.

It seems to me that there is a gasket that you can use as well. Like an air cleaner gasket for a 4v carb with a 4" throat.

I think IDIBRONCO is right, I do remember hearing that they're the same size as a regular 4 barrel carb inlet.

When I was originally piecing together a first gen banks turbo, I bought a 4" gasket from summit that would work, and it was listed for a carb. Sadly that kit didn't work for me, as it was for an auto, and I have a zf. Think it was a whole $8 at the time.

I lost the air-breather to intake gasket on my truck one time and went to the local Napa auto parts asked for a replacement and he couldn't find a listing for it. So I asked for a gasket for a Holly 4 barrel carburator and he had it in stock and it fits fine on the intake. Hope this helps.
