So there I was, minding my own business, changing out the stand pipes and dummy plugs on the truck in my signature. I had to pull the oil rail on the driver side to get at & remove the lower part of the old standpipe. As I put the oil rail back on, I noticed a mysterious o-ring laying in the valley between the HPOP cover and the oil cooler housing (the turbo and pedestal are out) that appeared out of thin air. In the attached picture, I've placed a dime next to the o-ring for scale. For the life of me, I can't figure out where the hell this tiny o-ring came from. It's looks like it's tan in color.
Any one recognize it and know where it is supposed to be? Many Thanks ~ Kurt

Is it like the tan o'ring from the blue spring fuel pressure upgrade kit? I can't think of a tan o-ring coming from anything at the turbo area.
I don't think most know just how flat the D-rings are on the inside. They are also very stiff and if
you ever remove one and put a new on on you need to give it an hour to shrink back after being
stretched to work it in place. Same thing goes with the little Teflon seals in the power steering system.
They need time to relax back to the un-stretched sizing.
In looking at a dime I don't think it's a D-ring or an injector top seal. So that brings us back to the Blue Spring Kit or an O-ring from the EOT Sensor or Oil Pressure Switch.
I believe it is an o-ring from the fuel filter housing now that I have read all the comments and seen a picture of the blue spring kit.. I had to remove the intake manifold so I could remove the passenger side bolts on the HPOP cover, so it could've fell out when I disconnected the fuel lines from the fuel filter housing. I'll go check it out as soon as I complete a couple of "honey-do's" for the wife.
