They're special O rings. Two per injector, one small , one large. Cheap to buy and easy to replace but you have to buy specific rings for VW/914. Available at the dealer, aftermarket Porsche parts houses or local VW specialty parts stores.

If you were to cut one in cross-section the seal is square, not round like an Oring. Most of the time you only have to replace the small tip seal, the larger one is just a holder and doesn't seal anything. |
