Oil cross over ring

Where does it go? I'm worried I missed this as I have just completed my first re-build. Engine is still out of the car and this is the only part I cannot place. Having a tough time locating a reference to it in the FSM. Last thing i want is an oil leak.

The only O-rings that are internal to the motor are the 4 dowel pin o-rings, the front cover o-ring that has the white spacer that goes around it, the o-ring around the front pulley bolt, and the large thin o-ring that goes around the rear stationary gear.

That one o-ring by itself I'm not sure where it goes. That might be for the oil level sender or something. As long as you have the o-rings I mentioned above in the motor, anything else should be easy to deal with while the engine is in the car.

The stock oil ring kits from Mazda contain many spare parts.
