But d... expensive way to buy washers.
Yep, got you over a barrel. Many have chimed in with with experimental washers and bolts. I paid $21.00 for the new GM bolts, pricey, but leaking oil is not an option for me.

Those look nothing like the ones on my new bolts.
The one in the middle is the original GM washer. The question is will the copper washers work? The nearest bike shop is a couple hour drive.

No drip, able to park on anybobodys concrete drive is the goal. The motor coming out has 180,000 miles with no leaks. Thats what I'm aiming for.

Copper has been used on banjo bolts and oil drain plugs for years. Use the original bolts and the shiny washers should seal at least in my old man brain.

You’d think, I was ok with $21, $40 would definitely make re-think.

Howdy y'all. Finally found the bolts for the oil filter adapter for my '97 k2500 from GMPartsOnline. They came with the sealing washers (when you order, they're sold individually, not in pairs). Fast forward - nothing wrong with my bolts, just the washers. Paid $39 with shipping for the two bolts. Upon further investigation, found the sealing washers at FMWfastners.com for .30 each. I hope this helps someone
Hey Truckermim - I have the same issue. Took the bolts out. They are fine. Washers are kind of twisted looking on the inside which is supposed to be up tight against the bolt. Definitely need to replace them, as I could see oil dripp9ing from the bolt heads. I've looked at FMWfastners.com, but cannot find washers that look like the GM ones. Could I trouble you to share any more intel on the ones you got? Thanks bud.
