I just purchased the oil change gasket kit from HD last week. All the "O" rings in the package (3)&nbsp\\;are the same size.
The only&nbsp\\;gasket included is for the Derby cover.&nbsp\\;

They are the same, as well as the tranny plug I think.

yup. I have found though that the derby cover gasket can be used a few times. As for worrying about leaks, well, it would be kinda hard to miss!
