Default Please help with valley cover and knock sensors.

So after months, I'm putting my car back together.

I screwed the knock sensors into the block and slid the valley cover with the rubber grommets on the bottom over and bolted everything together...

Then I noticed I have two grommets left over! duh! So I pull everything apart and can't figure out exactly how the 4 grommets go together with the cover and sensors. Did I just get two extra grommets back from my builder? Can someone help me out?

Thanks!

I'm new with LS1's but the only grommet looking things I remember is the 4 o-ring/gaskets that go between the coolant spider looking thing and the head.
The valley cover goes in first, than the knock sensors, with a gasket between the block and cover...unless theres a grommet to seal in the knock sensors idk

Thanks, I got everything else together, I know there is a perimeter gasket for the cover and water pump gaskets, but the valley cover itself had two grommets in the bottom that slid over the knock sensors. Is that it or are there two more?
