Default oil pump sealant question

Hi guys
As title am repalcing the cam belt and doing the oil pump oil seal..So pumps off etc: etc:
1-Is the small o-ring that seals the pump pick to the block up easily available ?
2-And what type of sealant have you been using for the pump face to block and hopefully easily obtainable.
Cheers in advance

Why are you replacing the block O ring ? Do you have an oil leak at the front ?

If so, it's more likely to be the front main "oil seal", which is fitted into the front of the oil pump, and you don't need to remove the oil pump to fit it.

Mark.
