Can you reuse the factory one if it’s never been off

if it comes off in one piece maybe, but usually they are too brittle.

His is the metal gasket. I have never reused one but I would bet you could reuse it and not leak. Pressure test when done and know.

Ahh, it's been a while since I've taken a 5.9 cr one off.
