Some of the water pumps used an O-ring instead of a gasket.......if your pump uses an O-ring, then it will have a groove to lay it into, all along the face of the pump where it mates to the block. If your pump has no groove, then you need to use the gasket it came with.

The new water pumps will come with either a gasket or an O-ring and the O-ring pump will be machined to use the O-ring.
