12mm Banjo bolt oil pipe copper crush gaskets

[Eydugstr]

I apologize if this is something that's been covered in another thread, but ran into this recently and thought it might help someone else out.

Had to replace the coolant log o-rings on a '90 Xii, and learned that in order get the coolant log off, you need to remove the oil pipe that runs from the cylinder down to the oil pan, which uses 6 12mm copper crush gaskets (part # 11009-1376). Because of the pandemic/supply chain issues, my local dealer showed that they were on backorder with no idea when they'd be able to get them. Tried an ebay vender only to have them drop the ball for six days before finally telling me the ones they had on the shelf were damaged, and they were stuck in the same boat my dealer was.

After trying auto parts chains (Their banjo gaskets are mostly for standard SAE brake lines, and their metrics are usually 10mm. The closest they had were 12mm copper oil drain plug gaskets with an OD and thickness about the size of a nickel) ran across these at a industrial supply outfit call Grainger's...https://www.grainger.com/product/FABORY ... tout=false

They come in a pack of 50. HTH someone down the road.
