Hello All.
I'm hoping I can get help identifying a couple of these O-rings pictured. They cam in an OEM gasket set. I cant find any reference of the content (OEM: 43779A87) even here on iboats.

One is 3" in Dia and pretty thick and the other is 2"dia.

I have found that there is redundancy in this set if you order say a fuel kit or water pump kit. But anyway, I like to find a spot for these O-rings as long as I've completely taken apart the power head.

A side question: I noticed some gaskets have a bead of sealant and other do not. Is that to say the other gasket can simply go on dry? Other concern is if should I put a sealant on the cylinder block in addition to the cork gaskets that seem to just run the length of the block.

Thanks for any help!

Lots of kits fit lots of different motors.
Some have a small difference and use a different part.
So they include a bunch of parts that don't fit all the applications.
So you end up with extra parts. J
