LIM O-Rings

I'm talking about the two o-rings that go between the LIM and the Intake ports. They seal the coolant passages that run through the LIM to the motor. Any tips on how to keep them from falling off the LIM while I'm bolting it back on. I couldn't get them to stay put.

Are those o-rings only present on the turbo motors? I'm getting ready to pull my LIM for cleaning and am making a list.

Two fell off when I pulled the old one off. Unless I got the one that was part of the new one and the old one together and just thought they were supposed to go together.
