If there's a pump rebuilder in your area (and there probably is no matter
where you are- since these same bosch pumps were used on cars, tractors,
farm equipment, etc.) you can get one from them.  I'm assuming you are in
somewhat of a hurry but if not there are also some ebay sources, just
slower.  I bought my rebuild kits thru a guy in Georgia, but hard parts here
at a local rebuild shop.

I don't know what size that o-ring is unfortunately, but its big about 2.5
inches.
