Thanks for the info on the umbrella seals. I believe it is not worth the effort/expense of machining the B18 valve guides for a different type of seal. I don't recall them being a problem even if some were missing.
I remember finding bits and pieces of old seals when adjusting the valves on my '65 or '66 122's.
The goal is to just bring my B18D motor up to B18B specs. Maybe with new harden valve seats, just for good measure.
