I believe that the "thin ring" that your talking about goes on top and the thicker goes second.Then the oil ring (wavy lines) goes on the bottom.

oiler goes on the very bottom ring grove along with 2 rings to hold it in place the the next ring grove takes the THICKER carbon ring of the 2 then the top rings gets the thin metal one!!
