Thanks tools, I was worried it would compress down too much and block the fuel, or at least impede it.

Any O-ring will stand up to fuel. That O-ring should work. It will compress down when, you tighten down the screws. Also Most auto parts will have metric O-rings. You just have to find a sales person that is not lazy. Because they are often kept in the back. I picked up all the O-rings I needed to rebuild a set of carbs awhile back at Advance Auto.
