You need to be more specific about the Gravely. Is it a 2 wheel tracotr or a 4 wheel?
They made several of both that are similar, but in there own way different. Depends on the model and its age.

Some had there own engines, Model L, started being made in the early 1950s, or earlier
These all use the same rings regardless of exactly what year. Stopped being made in the mid 70s.

Some had Kohler Engines Sometime around the late 60s these came about, kind of replaced the ones with the Gravely engine, design of the machine unchanged except the engine.
Parts can be gotten from any Kohler dealer, as well as NAPA and several other aftermarket parts suppliers

Some had Briggs Engines Later 70s I think Available from any Briggs and Stratton dealer, as well as aftermarket sources. Mostly found on the 4 wheel tractors

and Some had Onan Engines.
some even had Robin engines, but those are the fairly new ones from the later 80s

Parts are still available for them all. Onan parts are a tad pricey however.

You didn"t give any details, but you might also check that the crank case breather is working. Presure in the crank case can force oil into the cylinders.

you might need more than rings. if you don"t have the ability to measure the bore and compare it to the specs( in a gravely I think it"s a kohler motor) take it to a machine shop, have the bore measured and find out if the bore is out of round. If the machinest says it is still in specs buy the RIGHT rings according to the manual.
