TF Tuned Kit- any advice on this??

Now my service kit has arrived for my Rockshox 302 SA from TF Tuned I've got another headache... I can make sense totally of the o rings,wavy washer,circlips for the air side, but supplied was a "Tora Motion Control & Turnkey Service" kit which has the circlip for the external control lever, the bottom O ring for the bottom of the stanchion all looking good, but instead of an O ring for the damper piston and 2 (one bigger and thinner) for either end of the blue Turnkey(lockout) unit I have some weird looking thick fork seal thing, a thin split ring like graphite material (it's like one of those expanding compression/oil rings on a car piston), and a thinner o- ring that's not quite as big as the one that came off...totally effing confusing and all I can think at this stage is that this is for breaking down and servicing the actual turnkey compression damper unit....which I wasn't planning on doing...either way seems I'm 3 o-rings short of a complete job...tried calling them but closed til monday.... And now I can't find jack sh*t on servicing the damper unit to verify that these are indeed the seals for inside it?.... And I really don't want to attempt dismantling it....!!

This is the kit with the 5 rings/seals pictured ("column" with the circlip in the split ring right of centre), and in a Miscellaneous bag there are 2 what I can describe as rubber washers??: https://www.tftuned.com/torarecon-silver-turnkeymocosolo-air-service-kit/p3471

The fact that the kit is for "TORA/RECON SILVER TURNKEY/MOTION CONTROL/SOLO AIR" I maybe can expect some left overs/spares but at this point the damper side O rings seem missing, unless these are some weird upgrade (seriously doubt that...)
