Here are the seals
Not sure on those, I didn't end up having to fully rebuild the master I was working on.

Could they be in the bore of the master? Or could they be the seals that go between the master and the fluid reservoir?

They go on this piece. If you still have the old one look at the orientation (open side vs closed side)

Found a better picture. The seals are on the left of the picture but go inside the plastic piece on the right, seals around the shaft. Recently rebuilt 3 of them, all were leaking from the front all over the brake boosters. All 3 cars were sitting for an extended period of time.

In your picture it shows the two seals that I posted. My question is where do they actually go how did the babies inside the cylinder of the brake master cylinder during assembly. That is where I am confused I do not know which direction or where they go.
