You must be getting old! I agree looks a little daunting .My mates aftermarket replacement was pretty straight forward.The thing about that post was the waterpump was slightly different in housing and number of pulley grooves ,yet all the belt numbers are the same numbers for the export models.Some kits come withe new orings,some dont !

Have noticed that about the O rings too, the scary part was where the plumbing at the back joins in the valley of death.... a bit of grinder massage has never bothered me, lol,lol..
