The ring there looked like a beveled ring. If you cut a cross section of it it would be a triangle. But I bought the kit of o-rings, $19 for 100 of them, (dman it). so i have way more than I need. But noone at any parts store could tell me what size it was.
Just renewed my lack of confidence in the (3 Brothers) Manny, Moe and Jack@ss. Morons.
No leaks thus far. Tonite I will open the hood and check for a leak. Since today was the first real test. Highway speeds and the long comute in to work.
Thanx again

Yeah, the "bevel" was part of your problem. Notice how nice and round the new o-ring is. The compression of the reservoir against the pump is what causes the "bevel" and eventual breach of the seal. I'm glad you got the job done.
