T-Case O-ring - Can I still get this?

I need this O-ring pictured here, it is between the snout and the T-case of the output shaft that connects to the drive shaft. My car is a '03 EVO 8 GSR.
What I find weird is that when you do a T case service the procedure calls for you to remove this so get it out of the car to make it easier. Well you'd think this O-ring must be replaced or lost at times, so i am hoping something comes through for me, if not I am going to have to get measurements and start giving out what dimension it is because I know others will need this.

Any help on where to get this would be great, no luck at the dealer..

I ordered several other o-rings for my transfer case from the dealer including that little one that goes between the transfer and the transmission. BTW, this little o-ring comes in a package of two, I guess they figure you are bound to lose one. I didn't order the one you need but if I could get the others from the dealer, no problem, why not that one?

Why they do not have it, I have no idea it scares me though because it is important..

G/L and let me know if you find it. I walked into the dealer with the part in my hand and they still couldn't find it on their system. I kept getting the wrong part so I just gave up, mine was in decent shape still so I was able to re use the old one.

I will see what type fo research i can do, I am thinking this O-ring is more of a "manufacturing O-ring and not really something that gets replaced much from Mitsubishi"

They show kits, but I'm 100% sure you can call and just ask for the o-rings. Like the prior post, you should get the large, and the small o-ring just in case. Good Luck.

I have seen in other threads where you can call and get that specific seal. I have also seen where people have just pulled them apart and used RTV then stuck it back together. Either way should work. I do know that Jacks sells them because I almost bought one. Turns out it was the seal between the driveshaft and Tcase that was leaking on mine. Not the pictured seal.

May have to. Called STM no luck - What I am honestly thinking is that the o-ring used is a circular and then takes the shape of the picture shown, or I at least hope. I called STM a minute ago and no luck they cannot source one.
