Don't be a half *** just order them you cheap bastard. You have a greddy intercooler and you can't buy some crush washers from mazdatrix? Something is wrong here......

you also may want to make sure the oil cooler is not cracked at the bungs and make sure the lines are good. when reinstalling the lines into the oil cooler after you replace the crush washers (if that is in fact the source of the oil leak) be VERY careful when re-tightening the banjo bolts. if you overtighten the banjo bolts, you will crack the bungs on the oil cooler.

Any hydraulic or fastener store will have them. Just bring in one of the old ones to compare sizes. It's OK if they're not exactly the same size.
