Does anyone recognized this product?
Looks like a good idea.
There is this red spacer ring to help position and hold the crimp ring in the right place.
I want to know more about it.

I'm not sure due to different terminology but I think you're referring what we call where I live a p-trap. If so, the washer is most likely the slip-joint washer as seen in this photo:
There is one where the tailpiece connects the trap as well as one where the elbow connects to the trap's outlet. This second joint will always have to hold water as the trap remains filled past this point.
If this is not what you are referring to, a picture would help.
This is what your flush valve looks like, when it's not in your toilet.
This bit should be flexible enough, to allow you to bend it out of the way on both sides.
The pins holding the actuating unit in place should slip out of the holes, and the whole piece can be removed. The best method to remove the actuating unit, is to gently pry the bracket with a screw driver on one side, then twist the actuating unit so that the pin on that side pops free. Once one pin is out, it should be easy to get the other side out.

This is just one variation of the PEX crimp ring. Some rings come with plastic to hold them in place, some do not. If you do a search for "3copper pro crimp ring" you will find this. You can buy these at the big-box hardware stores, online, and probably at the smaller hardware stores as well.
