Fuel resistant O rings?

I'm trying to replace some of the O rings in my carbs, but i'm not sure if standard rings are fuel resistant?

Looking at something like this:

Do I need special O rings? Silicone etc?

Usually rplace the standard nitrile o rings with viton one's give any Brammer Branch a call and they'll be able to supply them.
