So I order a heat core kit for my pre 1-90 build 535i and one of the o-rings in the kit is wrong. See the small o-ring? It doesn't exist on this heater core....go figure...people replacing your heater core with one of these kits - beware.:

So I informed BMA, but I wanted to get things back together ASAP so I had to order the right o-ring from the dealer.
One part comes back differently than ordered (wasn't there to pick it up in person so I could not ask them what was up).
I ordered:
64-11-8-377-824 (http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?model=HD23&mospid=47408&btnr=64_0174&hg=64&fg=15&hl=20)
I got:
64-11-1-468-436
I cannot find 64-11-1-468-436 anywhere within realoem or bmwfans.info. I did a google search and it seems as though this part might be the valid part since I come up with a bunch of hits for other parts vendors for E34, E30, etc. Not sure why it's not in the system unless it's a really new part or something. I just want to make sure this is the right kind of o-ring and the right size cause I reeeaaaallly don't want to be opening this heater box anytime soon.
