i got this done awhile ago. it costed me around 300 bucks in total at richmond mbz.
the report did not specify what seal ring it is.. it just says seal ring, but u could probably find out with the part number.
140-271-00-06 SEAL RING $1.21

they are most likely talking about the connector from the transmission to the tcu.
