    Russ,

    You want item #36 on the Gear Case page that Steve posted. OMC part # 301877(Shift shaft O-ring) There should only be one under the bushing. The tapered end of the bushing goes in first. Tap it in until the O-ring makes a good seal around the shift shaft. Some people put a little of their favorite sealant on the bushing before installation.

    Nothing to it.
