I talked to Busty, he wasn't exactly sure of the size since they were installed during the manufacturing process. I pulled out the parts box and measured the o-rings I have against the cup seals I have and it looks the it should be an 011 90D urethane o-ring. If you were to try to replace an existing o-ring, you would have to flare the brass out before installing the new one. Back in the day, there was a home made fixture in the shop that was used to form the brass back around the o-ring, which would be a necessary step. Only used it for the occasional piece that arrived uncrimped. Another possible option would be to use a cup seal for a .68 Special. MontNeel got its start making better cup seals for the .68 Special, and Busty seems to remember that they would work. That was before my time, so I can't say either way.

there is no listing for the cup seal orings. As near as I can tell they were only sold as a unit.
There is another listed in the oring kit. It is 011 70 duro. I do not believe this is the cup seal size, however. My guess is that is a hammer oring for earlier models.
