So, for all those that have been gracious to help, this is the 650. The four burner is disassembled, but same set up. I noticed a orange gasket in the bottom portion of the cook box. Is it essential? Can I get by without it? never tried making a gasket, but willing to give it a try.....any...

I think it is a generation 1

I hope these help. Middle picture is right side caster, the others are the left side caster. It appears as though this insert is damaged. Not sure how to get out of the frame leg, or if there is a replacement insert.
