I received a lower end seal kit Sierra #18-2671 from MarineEngine.com this week.
The kit had (2) small 'o'rings which appear to be #AS568A-108, O.D. 1/2", I.D. 1/4", Cross Section 3/32".
I'm not sure where these go, but they aren't used for the shift rod. The shift rod is .3115" diameter. I found no 'o'ring that would fit the cover/shift rod guide. I tried one of the small 'o'rings, but it fell out when the shift rod was inserted.
******************************************
Does anyone know what the correct 'o'ring part number is for the shift rod?
Best I can tell, is it may be a -109 or a -203(??).
******************************************
Edit: OOPS. The shift rod seal was in the kit, stuck under a flap. The 'o'ring appears to be a special. Could not find it in the 'o'ring sizing catalog. The O.D + .63", I.D. = .309", and the cross section = .18". Or maybe it's a metric for an 8mm shaft(??).
