I believe I
paid about $5 a set for "all the seals" for the Mazda injector at O'Reily auto
parts. However, the primary injectors turn easily in the port. Is this normal
for them to spin or are they actually the wrong size?

The
injector can turn pretty easily when it's in place. The bottom of the
injector, where it goes into the housing isn't much of a leak hazard, since
there's no real pressure there. I think it would be more likely
to have air being sucked in past the o-ring than to have fuel leaking
out. Irritating, but not
dangerous.
The top
seal is of course the biggie. High pressure fuel is a significant
hazard, but you can test that by turning the fuel pump on without cranking
the engine.
Cheers,
Rusty
