Hi everybody, I just purchased my first project civic and I am now shopping for parts... It's a 2001 civic EX d17a2... I need to replace the head gasket and I am trying to buy all the OEM Honda gaskets separately to save some money... I have found all the part numbers by researching the forum, but I need help to figure out what that gasket or o-ring is. It's the one circled in red in the attached photo. Anyone that can help? Thank you

Youll actually save money by buying the gasket kit.

Check out my head gasket link in my signature. Itll help you out. I dont ever recall getting that.. Ring.. Thing.. In my gasket kit

I can't find any link in your signature... anyway the cheapest OEM head gasket set that I was able to find costs about $180... sourcing all the OEM gaskets and seals separately on the same website plus new exhaust studs, bolts and nuts, plus a handful of extra seals all adds up to about $140.... all I need is to find out what that ring is... thanks
