The brass ring that comes with the filter is the crush washer for the oil pan drain plug. It has nothing to do with being on top of the oil filter! The two rubber O rings in question go on the end of the shaft of the Oil filter cap. As in this picture...

They do not come with the filter, you have to get them separately.
