Since we're using acrylic/lexan, it is extremely easy to do this kind of thing.

Ok, wasn't sure if you had a better way to do it or not. For anyone else wanting to do this but doesn't have the tooling to make the O ring you can just use clear RTV silicone. My REV. 2.0 block has 2 layers of 1/4" acrylic and I used that silicone. Been running for over a month now 24/7 without issue. I used 400 grit sandpaper and scrated up the surfaces that needed siliconing for a better bond. I thought it would make the acrylic look bad with all those scratches I made but I will be damned the clear silicone made them invisable!!!
Anyway. My $.02.
