Rebuild Kit o-ring locations?

So, could you fine gentlemen let me know where these go?
I know where the big orange ones go and I'm pretty sure the biggest black one goes on the rear stationary gear.

What engine series do you have. The 4 equal sized small ones could be for the oil filter pedestal and beehive oil cooler.

To me the thick small black ones are for between the IM and the housings where the cooling goes (coolant passage? technical term idno)

So, for anybody else who wants to know, I figured out where these go.
The biggest black one goes on the rear stationary gear.
the thick one to the right goes on the distributor.
the two thick ones go in the coolant passages to the intake manifold.
the smaller pair to the left go under the oil filter pedistal.
the set of four go onthe dowel pins in the engine.
the thicker one on top (of the two left) goes under the oil pump.
the one below that goes in the recess that's on the front iron. it sandwichs against the front cover.


I hope this helps someone else who tries to rebuild using the Haynes Manual.

Good thing I test fitted everything! Now I need to figure out where it goes...

Did you ever figure out where the tiny round one goes. I also have the one lying around and cant figure out where is goes in addition to some gaskets which i think might be for emissions/carb stuff

Im going to assume yes since it was months ago.
