Or some MS28778-6
Or go to the auto store and ask for some fuel o'rings. Show 'em your -6 fittings.

Flared AN fittings shouldn't require o-rings...
The adapter-to-fuel rail might need them only if a shoulder is provided on the fuel rail (a "seat" for the ring)- otherwise the o-ring will get pinched. Try a copper crush washer if the two surfaces are flat, with no shoulders...
You should know this, Hailers

Hailers knows they'd only go on the boss side of the fitting. Hailers assumed that everyone knew that, therefore did not state the obvious. In other word, Wayne, you did not get me this time. Other times, yes. Not this time.

If you get the SX brand of FPR, they come with all the necessary fittings and o-rings.
I can't confirm if the Aeromotive ones are like this also.
I believe the adapters to the fuel rail are all "flat" - check to see if there is a bevel on the fuel rail side?
I don't think there is, so you'll need a crush washer - copper or aluminum.
If there is a bevel, this requires an o-ring.
You *cannot* use an o-ring if there is no bevel!
