When I had one of those blocks a few years ago I bought some extra o-rings from Indy, or Indy products distributor. Can’t remember the size.

So Dad and I broke out the calipers yesterday and carefully measured the old Oring. Used our measurements to find the correct Orings on McMaster Carr. They should be here in a couple days and I will see how they fit. I think they will work fine. I will report my findings when they get here. Thanks Are the threads on your fittings 1-3/8" ?

No they measured 1.5" exactly. The Orings showed up today and they fit the core plugs like a glove. Will be a few months before I test them with water behind them but they should work just fine.
