Ron: They are made in a "figure 8" and are installed in cylinders 1&2 and
3&4 underneath the liners. You have to remove the liners to install them.
They are gaskets between the lower block and oil sump.
Removing the liners can be difficult or a walk in the park. Are you
replacing the liners? If so, I will get into more detail. Let me know.
