Help identifying this o-ring

New guy with new to me 08 Mini Cooper s. Purchased the car with the head off because of bent valves seared off sprocket because of a seized up brake booster. I rebuilt the head and now I’m trying to put this ride back together with the couple boxes of random bolts and parts that came with it.

mmmmm...I think it might be the o-ring for the thermostat breather.

Update.. this o-ring does not go to the thermostat breather or the a/c expansion part.
