Yanmar X0506595-01 O-Ring
The Yanmar X0506595-01 is the genuine replacement o-ring for Yanmar marine diesel sea water pumps that use this part. It is one of the cheapest parts in the pump and one of the few that can stop it working altogether.
Fitting is where most of them are lost. Clean the groove so nothing is trapped underneath, lift the old ring out with a plastic or brass pick rather than a screwdriver, and lubricate the new one lightly before the joint is closed. A ring nicked on a sharp edge during assembly seals well until the engine is running and then weeps, which sends people looking for a fault that is not there. Check the groove and the mating face for corrosion at the same time, because a pitted groove will not hold a new ring any better than it held the old one.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I avoid damaging the new ring?
Use a plastic or brass pick on the old one, clean the groove so nothing is trapped underneath, and lubricate the new ring lightly before closing the joint.
Q: Should I replace all the pump seals at once?
If the pump is open, yes. They have all seen the same hours and the same water, and reaching them is most of the work.
Q: What makes an O-ring swell?
Absorption of whatever it is sealing, or contact with a fluid the material was not chosen for. A ring noticeably larger than the new one is telling you something is wrong.
Q: Does a cover O-ring differ from a port O-ring?
They seal different joints and are not interchangeable. Both are static seals, but each is sized for its own groove.
