Head Gasket O-Rings

Putting 800 back together the manual shows putting rubber o-rings in the gasket for the outside pushrods. Wouldn't you o-ring the water journals if anywhere?

The corners had a tendency to seep a little oil and the middle o'ring seals pressurized oil going to the rocker arms. That is the 2 places they did the most good. If you want you could slip o'rings in the other location also, should not hurt a thing, Rod.

Makes sense enough. As always thanks for the expertise Rod.
