Hello,

I'm planning ahead for moving over the volvo oil pan to my other motor. I ended up having to remove this tube assembly due to the motor being filled with water/oil milkshake. The volvo manual recommends replacing some or all of these seals when removed. Going to be $20-30 after shipping for 3 little washer/orings. Any idea if I technically can reuse these and maybe add some 518 on there?

I just finished pulling my engine and ready for the install. I also want to make sure I don’t have any drips or leaves from this exact same spot. Is it possible just to go to a good automotive shop and match the O-rings?

I just changed my oil pan and threw the pan in the trash without realizing there’s a special washer on it. Number 33 on exploded view.
