Technically it's referred to as a 'pingf**kit' :lol:

Is that other O Ring on the other end of the white part?

Yes correct, it got left behind when I pulled the thermo out.
You need a set of these, very useful for small o-rings and the like, much better than struggling with a "terminal" type screwdriver:

I have a set (but not this brand) and although they are not used that often they are quite invaluable when you do need them. They are quite small, might not be obvious from the picture.
The guy at Seal Imports, where I get my O rings from, had one of these in his top pocket lol.
Ok, assembled everything with the new rings, even put a new one where the canister sits on the 'labyrinth ". Primed it up and started after a few cranks, let it idle for 10 minutes, turned it off, re started it and all good.
Thanks gentlemen for all your help, saved by the forum again :-D
