If you have the old copper washer, aneal it > place the washer on a metal hook, hold it in flame (gas stove or torch) until it is red hot, ones it red hot let it slide/fall of the hook into a small container with cold water.

Now the copper will be soft and pliable (you can bend it with your fingers) and reuse it on the oil plug where it will make a perfect seal.

No need to get a replacement.

The washers are formed. They bend when being “crushed”. Annealing will not restore a bent, aka crushed, drain pan washer. Mbepc or mbparts.mbusa.com will help find the part number.
