Re: Husqvarna 268 272 questions

That's how I feel about my 266XP and 272XP (and I'm sure I'll feel the same way about my 268XP after I rebuild it).

The 1/2"-ish diameter rubber bit that goes into the oil tank is the flange end of the pickup tube.  You can pull it out of the hole in the tank when the pump is removed.

The tiny 1/4"-ish diameter square-ish section rubber ring on the little roll pin sticking out of the backside of the oil pump body is the X-ring.  It has an X cross section (basically a square cross section with a shallow groove around the OD and another within the ID).  It seals the pump discharge port against a hole in the case that feeds a passage that leads to the bar oil feed slot in the bar mount pad.  Damn thing costs $3-$4 or so, but is important to replace if old and gummy.
