CA where to get oil cooler crush washers

So I replaced my (78) oil cooler and had new oil lines made. In the process of installing it I noticed that it had a crack where the fitting goes(on oil cooler). So I welded it and now I need 2 new crush washers . I have been calling all my local parts stores and no one carry's these. Is this a Mazda Only item? Any one have any recommendations where I can get them? Thanks

be really careful tightening the fittings, its really easy to split the cooler

Take one to Nappa, and they will dig around and find one for you. Works everytime (almost)...

I use Earl's Plumbing Dowty Seals. The shop recommends them for our oil cooler application.

Part# 178112 $6.04 for two.

They also have aluminum ones on the same webpage.
