Default Intake install and O-ring?

Yes I searched and I've also posted this over at g35driver.com but noticed this o-ring is also present on the 350z (according to the service manual)

hey so I installed my JWT filter and OEM ztube with no problems (except the rubber on the heat shield was kinda a pain). Just for fun I was looking at the service manual and noticed there is an "O-ring" between the MAS and the air cleaner case that should be replaced after every disassembly. I have attached the diagram from the manual and the o-ring is item #13. My question is does anybody remember seeing this? I don't remember seeing any O-ring when I did the install and now I'm kinda worried sorta...

Don't worry the O-ring will be fine.

If it's dry or cracked, replace it.

But 99% of the time it will be fine.

I think I vaguely remember seeing it, but there was nothing wrong with it, and it's rubber so there's no need to replace it...
