You can anneal the copper washers if you still have them, and reuse. Heat them to cherry red with a blow torch (or gas hob), and then quench them in a jar of water. This softens the copper, and allows it to be pliable enough to provide a seal when next used.  ____________________ "I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me."

If in doubt, you can get mixed packs of copper washers from most motor factors  ____________________ Busa Junkie |
