Can anyone identify these gaskets?
I got a full upper and lower gasket set for my 1988 3VZE and I can't figure out what some of the gaskets are for. My set didn't come with any kind of list as to what it included. Can anyone identify these gaskets?
Two metal crush ring looking things and then one rubber o-ring with a spring in it that looks like a camshaft ring, but it's not

Yes. The top pictures is for sure exhaust cross over pipe or down pipe rings and the other is a crank seal. Probably rear main seal. The bottom picture looks like a thermostat housing seal. And the little ring gasket next to it has me stumped.

Definitely not the rear main. So if it's not a camshaft, then definitely the front main. The 2 in the bottom pic are none of the above. I've never figured out what the bigger triangular one is, definitely not thermostat housing. And the smaller round one I've never seen before.

Thank you for all the responses, fellas. I'll be sure to label them. If no one knows what the paper gaskets are, then I guess they aren't important enough to replace
I figured I'd just leave this here so you guys can see how my top end rebuild is going.

I don't know how I didn't realize it before. The round one definitely is the drain plug gasket. We just use a little different looking ones at work, but it is the paper Toyota drain plug gasket.
