Fuel injector O rings or something else?

Injector O rings, I think?! I found a couple black O rings when I was taking off the fuel rail. Do I need to put these back, because I cant seem to find where they go.

Yes you need to have all of the O-rings in place!

You can't imagine the grief you'll have if you leave these off!

Consult the FSM and make sure you have them all...

when you took off the rail, were there o-rings on the injectors? if not, that,s them... if ya got new ones, change 'em out...Kinda scary when you reuse o-rings on something as critical & flammable as a pressurized fuel system...

hmm, well i'm not sure where they are from, all I know is that after I took them off, I saw two black o rings, any idea of what these are? The rings on the injectors seem to be on, also

a previous owner might have doubled up the o-rings on the injectors, maybe?
