I'm calling that good news, thanks!

I do remember it came with an o-ring that fits firmly around the chute part of the valve that goes through the donut.

I'll attach a photo here of the complete assembly and the donut I ordered/received separately 2 years ago. (I've been procrastinating on this longer than I realized
) Also a shot of my order for these parts from American RV Company. The 2 gray rings look like the same part to me except for their thickness but I haven't called Amer. RV or Thetford to ask them why they are different. What you call the o-ring I'm guessing is the black thing just visible at the top (upper side of the slide valve?) I believe I'll pull the toilet in a day or two and see what's there and then decide if I need to order anything else. I'll shoot some photos. Hadn't realized further disassembly won't necessarily be needed for this and that's a relief. I sure appreciate the advice and all the time you've put into this issue for the forum.
