Yes, that is the correct nozzle (needle jet) o-ring part number. They can be hard to put on if you have big fingers. Find a little girl to do it for you -- I'm serious. Also a little grease -- preferably Sil-Glyde, which is the only grease I know of that is specifically rubber-parts compatible -- will make the o-ring go on the nozzle easier, and will make the nozzle/o-ring assembly go into the carb body easier.

I just ordered two of these today. Man! Yamaha is proud of those little babies.
I use a 1mm thick x 4mm I.D. Viton o-ring sourced from McMaster-Carr, $3.04 for a 25 pack .....

Oh man! I paid $12.00 each from Yamaha.
The retail is only about half that. I think you got ripped off big time .....

Even @ $6 an o-ring, that's outrageous. That's why I sourced an alternative.
