Yep, that's where I got mine from. I believe mine was destroyed when a PO dipped the carb.

I am suspicious that ethanol fuel is destroying these orings. I have had 4 carbs in the last 6 years that have needed to have this oring replaced. One of these was only 2 years old - a 36mm PWK AS on a 2012 KTM 250XC.

doesn't the oil stabilize the fuel?

I'm asking, not stating. :)

I chased a bog on my 02 200 for weeks and then took a look to find that o ring to be torn just enough to really cause a giant jetting headache. Id replace it IMMEDIATELY on ANYused bike that has a keihin pw carb.
