Good afternoon. I have a ball-lock Corny keg. What is this piece actually called, and what size is the o-ring? I have tried searching various terms and have come up empty. Thanks in advance.

Yes, I should have said that. It's part #3, inside the disconnect, but I don't need the whole part, just the o-ring.
 
The cross-section of that tiny "O-ring" - at least on CMB disconnects - is not round, it's tapered on one face.
I've never seen the oem rings sold separately - one has to purchase the plunger assembly - and I would not want to risk failure substituting a ring with a round cross-section just to save a buck...

Cheers!
 
I see. I wasn't aware of that. This is the only keg I've ever dealt with and I've put 5 batches of cider through and I suppose I've just gotten lucky so far! I'll look into replacing it with the proper part.
