What I meant was Orings INSIDE the injectors, not the ones on the manifold.
The inside Oring seal isn't replacable.

Oh YEA, first off.. oh WOW, black injectors!  Those are ancient OEM units
from a 68 or 9, but they are fine if OK.  I still think the Oring is leaking
and the gas just happens to find its way out thru electrical terminal
instead of the body/plastic seam.

All the O-rings are brand new just  put them on just before we put the
engine in. I don't see how this can be anything but the injectors.  One of
them is yellow and it doesn't leak as bad as the rest but it leaks too. Keep
in mind these injectors have been setting up for 32 years.
