S4 OMP rebuild - Parts required?

The OMP on my 87 rx-7 is leaking pretty badly so I am looking for a parts list of what is required to rebuild / reseal it. There is a user on here who has a thread advertising O-ring kits for a very reasonable price however he is not responding to PMs or posts in his thread so I am hoping maybe somebody on here knows what exact O-rings are required to rebuild this thing myself? I have been searching for a while and I just can't find the O-ring sizes or a good picture guide.

I just took my disassembled omp down to my favorite seals shop. The guy there measured the fit of each part with some calipers and got me exactly what I needed. Was only $10 or so

Awesome, thanks for the link. I should have just thumbed through the archives in the first place

On a related question, for those who re-sealed their OMP's with viton O-rings years ago, how are they holding up? Still leak-free?

This link might help because if you pull the omp you might break a line.

I have some new PFA lines to replace the old ones with. They feel extremely brittle and since I am pulling the UIM to fix some vacuum leaks I figure I'd just replace them while I was in there. I was checking to see if the OMP end of the lines was leaking when I found the oil leak at the pump. Thanks for the tip though
