Default Rebuilding motor but have 2 quick questions (rings+stem seals)

Could I use b16a2 rings on a b18a piston?
Also I removed the valves from the head to clean them and do a rebuild but changed my mind. The valve stem seals are only a few hundred miles old but should I replace them anyway or can I just put the valves back in? I never cleaned or contaminated the seals in any way but I'm not sure how easy they rip from removing the valves.

You can use the B16 rings and I would just reuse the seals since you said they have only a few hundred miles on them.
