Yet another rear wheel bearing question

Rear wheel bearing on the 94 are making some noise. Jacked up one side and spun the wheel. Yep, bearing sounds dry if not damaged yet. Have searched the forum and was confortable with changing them myself. Was going to buy bearings, inner and outer seals and replace them this weekend. Today I checked Autozone's web site (autozone.com) and found something which confused me.

Input my vehicle and found results:
Wheel bearing - rear: Timken 516003 $51.99; Beck_Arnley 051-4036 $80.80

Related parts wheel seal - rear:
Rear Wheel Seal Inner 2 per car - Beck_Arnley 052-3586 $3.79
Rear Wheel Seal Outer 2 per car - Beck_Arnley 052-3570 $3.79
Rear Wheel Seal Outer O-ring Type 2 per car - Beck_Arnley 052-3645 $2.60 ???

I was fine up until the o-ring. First I heard about one in any discussion of the rear wheel bearings. Maybe I overlooked something in some of the discussions but I sure don't remember an outer o-ring. Anyone familar with it? Where/how does it fit?

Thanks for any assistance.

Tom
