Well I stand corrected about the availability of the seals, they are not
listed on any of the vendor web sites that sell the adapter as far as I was
able to check (TRF, Moss, VB, BPNW etc.

That is good info to know.

Ditto, you can also order them separetely thay are about $1 or less each. As
Greg said you have to ask for the part number(s).  I would order their kit as
I have heard of casting problems causing the others to leak.

Not exactly true.  A couple of years ago I was rebuilding my engine and
needed a new set of seals for the adapter.  I called the Roadster
Factory and talked to someone very helpful (Dave maybe?).  They do stock
a kit with both of the seals, but it didn't show up in any catalogs at
that time.  Can't say whether it's a catalog item now or not.
