O-ring Size - 617 Engine

Does anyone know what the dimensions are of the o-ring seal for the bolt that holds the fuel filter on a 617 engine?

I'll be changing my fuel filter today and will measure the o-ring and get the info to you.

Rats, I was hoping that someone would beat me to it.....

OK, first see the pictures. There are two o-rings on the hollow bolt that holds the secondary fuel filter. THe larger measures 19x14x2.5mm and is only a few months old -- my indy mechanic replaced it when he replaced my fuel filters. The smaller measures 15x11x2mm and appears old -- it is somewhat squashed looking and I plan to replace it soon.

Hope this is the info you need.

Jeremy5848,
Thanks for the help. The reason I am looking for this is because whenever I change a fuel system o-ring I wnat to use Viton. Viton is so much more durable. I wish that they were the standard material for the replacement parts.
