Default Siemens 55lb Fuel Inj. "O-Rings"

Hello,

Does anyone know where I can purchase some new O-Rings for my Siemen 55lb Injectors ?

I purchased the Injectors from Motorsport Development in Blackpool, but they say they're unable to supply the O-Rings.

I've damaged taking them in and out of the Inlet Manifold as I'm building a project Cosworth and have had to make a few modifications to my billet fuel rail.........

The Injectors have never been used except for the dummy build.

I would be most grateful for any help and advise.

I am 90% certain that any bosch one will still fit pal. Maybe try and find a 403 fitting kit on eBay, I think they used to have them in.
