1971 Honda CB450K · Gaskets & Oil Seals & Engine Hardware Buying guide
The oil-seal kit gives seven reference and dimension entries. The small 12909-series item is a cylinder-stud seal, separate from the main combustion head gasket. Overhaul-set contents still need comparison with the specific engine work.

The two overhaul-set descriptions do not provide identical itemized contents. Compare the gasket shapes and joints required for the job, keeping the five-speed engine condition with the restricted set. Confirm any inclusion of separate oil seals or the small stud seal rather than assuming a shared overhaul name proves it.
The oil-seal list includes a four-number size entry. Retain all those numbers with the stated Honda reference and confirm the specification if it is unclear for the removed seal. Do not reduce it to a guessed standard size or assign an engine location from the dimensions alone.
The 12909-series item is the small cylinder-stud seal. The main gasket around the combustion chambers is a separate component. Compare the required reference and physical part instead of treating broad head-gasket wording as confirmation of the larger gasket’s function or coverage.
Compare the required references and complete dimension entries with the seven listed seals. The package count establishes supplied pieces, not the location of every seal or a requirement to replace all seven. Confirm any unclear size before selecting by measurement alone.
The Athena set lists 1968–1974 CB450K application; the other set explicitly requires a five-speed CB450K engine. Neither gives a complete gasket inventory. Compare the fitted engine, gasket shapes and required coverage before choosing the set.
