O-ringed block

Hi people.
Ive posted this in the engine section too, but thought id ask here aswell.
 
Had the head off my sapph cosworth the other day and found the block has been o-ringed.
It has a copper wire in it, and has been running grpA/std head gaskets. There were no problens with sealing of the cylinders, head was pulled for a coolant leak.
Has anyone seen or done this before? My only experience with o-rings is on blown alloy hemi headed big blocks that run a stinless ring and copper head gaskts!
Also, does any one have pics of a std intake port. Looks like my head has recieved a port job too.
 
Thanks
Brett

    When we rebuilt my engine we found it had been o-ringed aswell and again using a grp A gasket.
