mystery top end gasket/ring
I just received my 15$ complete top end gasket kit from ebay but I do not figure what is this part!
Is it a torque ring? or what!
thanks a lot.

I've got no idea. The copper ring in the background is the crush ring that is installed between the pipe and the cylinder. Is it the same size as the copper crush ring?

The Ebag Grab?
Sometimes vendors include gaskets for different models in the same 'kit'. It's easier/more cost efficient to add a $.01 gasket to a kit that won't be used 40% of the time than it is to stock different PNs in different places for the two slightly different applications.
Some pipe 'gaskets' may be different from the more common copper type?
Maybe it's the overseas model!

It usually doesn't matter where you got it... it's who made it.
A kit generally does have gaskets for all models... kinda like a Quadrajet rebuild kit, you only use about 1/3 the gaskets and parts....
I must have 5 partial quadrajet rebuild kits in the garage.
