I know this is old but does anyone have this part number?
or what size and quality level of the o-ring.
the failed ones seemed very hard and not like rubber. maybe they fail that way and were just rubber o-rings a decade ago.
thanks

This is correct. The rubber hardens over time which causes it to seal poorly.
