RE: O-rings or gaskets?
If conditions exist that prohibits the use of an O-ring I would look at the Helicoflex line of gaskets especially their Delta gasket. These gaskets generally require far less gasket seating stress than the normal gaskets

I'm guessing your 40lb figure came from assuming that 2 torr means 2 torr below atmospheric. I'm about 98% sure that the OP means 2 torr absolute. That makes for about 30. Thousand.
