Ok, here is an update. CB350 petcock packing doesn't work this is part number 16955-268-020. I tried searching and searching and more searching and seems to be nothing out there (that I could find). The CB700s uses a 27mm disk with (4) 8mm holes. I received my used petcock, the knob isn't loose like mine however very dirty used part and wasn't sure if it would leak also. Ran it threw my ultrasonic cleaner, then drilled it out to gain access to the "biscuit", this one is in very nice shape. I did find someone who said you can "Flip it over" and that seems to work. I myself have the biscuit and the flat o-ring that goes on the selector soaking in ATF fluid (another trick I've picked up in searching). I've drilled and tapped the holes for 3mm button head screws, will do another run threw the ultrasonic cleaner, give it a quick walnut shell blasting in the sand blaster. So with the cleaning, ATF soaking the biscuit and flat o-ring, plus the rebuild kit I hope to have a like new petcock that will work for years to come.
