Default Leaking fuel inlets

hey guys, im confused on this one... my carbs are leaking fuel from the orings in the inlet. where the fuel line comes in between the carbs and T's to both the left and right.... the T is fine i just need the orings... problem is i can't figure out which part number to buy and they arent cheap so i want to make sure i get the right thing.

look like either number 8 or 9 depending on what website you look at. but this ones acts like you need both 8 and 9???? can anyone clear this up? my local parts guy said he thought 2 carbs need #8 orings and 2 carbs need #9 orings... that seems silly to me... thanks

sorry i cant a get a direct link but i was looking here: they are listed in 1998-cbr600f3-carb assy. http://www.hondaparts-direct.com/fic...ion_detail.asp

not sure what size o-rings they are, but why dont you just order an assortment of o-rings?
O-Ring Assortment, Buna N, 382 Pcs, 30 Szs - O-Ring Assortments - Supplies - 1RGX6 : Grainger Industrial Supply
we've got a kit similar to this and it has just about every o-ring that we have needed.
if one doesnt fit try another.

well good suggestion, only problem is the guy im a building this project with insists on OEM. we actually have a oring kit and found some in it that looked very very close to the same. he said and i partialy agree, "if the fell the same and look the same as the ones that leak, they will leak too" personally i would like to try them, but they are his orings and his garage so sometimes i just have to pick my battles haha
