    There is a square cross section o-ring which comes with every new oil filter. It goes in the grove in the engine block. Be sure to dig out all of the old o-ring.

    It's been 25 years since my last B16, but yes, there used to be a rubber ring that came with the filter. I didn't always use it, but ,eventually, I'd have to dig the old one out of its groove with an icepick.
