I just bought 2 Merkur oil filter adapters and would like to know if anyone has a source for gaskets to fit them?

Gasket, or "O" ring?

Mitch had some O-rings.

I'm not sure if the 90* Merkur oil filter adapter uses the same O-ring as the oil cooler. I imagine it is the same?

I guess I should have specified. The seal or gasket on the oil cooler side is a flat rubber ring that measures 2.863" OD by 2.428" ID by groove depth of .115". Thanks for any help! Bruce

FYI, the oil cooler to filter adapter is a different size than the oil cooler to block:

Don't all the filters come with o-rings??

this is the ring on the 90-degree elbow where it attaches to the oil cooler. The oil filter attaches to the other end of the 90-degree fitting.

Ok, I understand now. it's a 90-degree-cooler-filter installation.
