I did that with mine as I recall from my days on another vehicle that if you run something threaded into the oring it could tear the ring if they were say cold, not stretched, and not oiled.
For the C-block, issue, are you saying the cap screw didn't sit flush with the C block mount? Can you take a pic?
yes I had oiled the oring with slime, and after the first one tore I stretched the next one by sliding it on a tapered seal pick and it went over the screw but because i stretched it-it tore upon entering the hole ..lol it was too big at that point.
C block was my fault I totally put it on backwards..lol! so no issue there anymore, too many beverages during the build.
