Are you sure ?? Just removed all my injectors and groove was empty . Above the ball there is a groove with a small dia washer used to seat inj . I thought there was some sort of O -ring below alignment ball ??

do some research on the site here...evidently members have had issues with them as well. my experience has been good. but from what i was told the issues were under performing components and wrong parts

The only seal that goes on the nozzle end of the injector is the copper gasket. The o-ring thats supplied in most injector kits is a dust/water seal, that goes on after the retaining nut has been installed, but before the return and high pressure lines are installed.

There have been many complaints about Pensacola's poor quality products and bad customer service.
You get what you pay for.
