So I ordered this gasket set (https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/volvo-cylinder-head-gasket-set-b230f-victor-270689) a while back, but now I need help identifying what all these gaskets/seals are for. I cant find a list anywhere but I would like to replace all the seals I can with gaskets from the set. So if anyone could help me by maybe putting together a list that would be very helpful.

Here's what I think I recognize in the set:

- head gasket
- intake manifold gasket
- exhaust manifold gaskets
- valve stem seals (there's 4 right?)
- valve cover gasket
- throttle body gasket
- front camshaft seal (brownish orange thing?)

everything else I have no clue. Thanks in advance.
 
Looks like 8 valve hushers
Maybe a water pump o ring
Tri-angular exhaust gasket mani-downpipe
Injector o-rings /4

And 4 K-jet injector holder to cylinder head o-rings.
A thermostat housing o-ring.
The mushroom looking part is the top water pump seal. I don't see the square cross section water pump seal that seals the heater transfer tube.
I think the fiber washers are probably for pulse air tubes if the head was equipped with pulse air.
The copper seals are likely for the sensors in the head.
The tiny o-ring, I'm not sure about.
 
Wow thank you guys, I would have never figured that out on my own lol. You guys are the best. Also how could I determine if my head has "pulse air tubes" ? I've never heard that term before. What would I be looking for?
