Injector Cross Over Tubes
Hello,
I ordered some Injectors the other day, figured I might as well remove my stock ones being as my engine is 1/4 apart anyways. I got the injectors and cross over tubes out easily, however I am wondering if this is normal on the tubes? 2 of the tubes are fairly clean, the other 4 are like this:

Is this normal like blow by almost, or should the o-rings/tubes be replaced?
Thanks!

From: North Carolina or Kentucky. Take your pick
O rings should be replaced. Make sure injector hold down bolts and injector lines are properlly torqued and recheck after couple hundred miles. Don't ask why.

Thanks Dozer,
Am I able to get away with regular style o-rings that you get at a hardware store? Or do I need a special type of o-ring that is made for these tubes?
