VE Pump reseal questions

I finally got round to fixing pump leak and install 3200 gov spring and new fuel pin. The rebuild kit apparently does not have the O-ring for the pin that rides on the fuel pin. Nothing in the kit that small anyway. Also, is there a washer/seal for that bushing that the boost? pin slides in? I can't get one out of there but the parts diagram shows one in there and there is a metal washer that fits the bushing perfectly in the kit. Anyway these seals are what I need to fix fuel leak that's coming out of the rubber vent, right?
Can I get that O-ring at the hardware or is it special?
I have a new bushing for the throttle shaft but I'm wondering if it's worth the hassle to replace it? The original seems pretty tight and doesn't show much wear.
Inneresting thing is I found that the boost pin was stuck, had a heck of a time getting the fuel pin and diaphragm out. The Blaster is my friend!

Thanks

Found the o-ring. It's green, not black like all the others, and was stuck inside a little metal cap. Found out you don't want to use rubber, has to be nitril or viton.
Still would like to know about the little washer. One didn't come out with the bushing and I can't get one out of the recess.
