  20. Hey Ed I have found it best to put two orings on that one in the groove one above,( I'm not positive of the number) Also have found that you pretty much got to remove the fill tube from the block and start from scratch to aline everything properly And to be double sure I fill the cavity above the oring with hi heat! silcone Tighten turbo drain and block bolts lightly till seated then snug up! Just an observation!
