Oil filter drain plug

Oil filter drain plug
The oil filter drain plug on my Z1A is damaged. I’m going to replace it. From memory I don’t think there’s a washer or o ring under it. Should there be?

Hi Jon, I'm not sure, just saying hello but I thought it should have an alloy washer

Not the oem solution, but I use dowty sealed washers on all sump plugs, car or bike.
A better solution IMO if you can get them and reusable without annealing (I generally aquire them from work).

Mr Bump - can you anneal a Dowty washer - thought they has rubber seal built in?

Hi Mark.
Are you well?
I just went by what John asked for. The "oil filter drain bolt" not the "sump drain bolt".

....what I meant was you might have to anneal or replace a copper washer or replace an ally washer, but because the dowty washers are rubber sealed they are reusable without any messing about.
