Default Fuel Tank feed and return line connector seals

Hi all,
I bought a gas tank online for my car and it looks like its in decent shape.
Before I install it, I thought perhaps I should replace the seals (o ring) on the fuel line connectors on the bottom of the tank just to be safe.
Does anyone know if that is possible or necessary? I cant seems to find any information about it.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

yes, it is possible. Probably a good idea to replace them now especially since you have the tank out. It's a real pain to replace them later on if they leak...part number EBC9606

Hey thanks @someguywithajag
No wonder I couldn't find anything about it. Stuffer Pin??? what the heck kind of name is that for a gas tank line seal.
I really appreciate it friend.

Stuffer Pin is incorrect. I ordered them and they were wrong. The quick couplings attached to the hoses are crimped on and are 2 different sizes. tThe O'rings will age and leak! There are no part numbers for them that i could find. I bought an O'ring kit and worked at fitting the correct size! Hopefully I will get that right!

Actually the stuffer pin part was correct for my car. It comes complete in a nice package that you stuff into the connection hole. It worked great for me. I can see that using the correct O rings will probably work too.
