Dazza, if you haven't discovered them yet, refer to one of the on-line parts websites. As another member points out, teach a man to fische and he will be fine for life. You'll need to use your 'puter's chips to check!
From that you will discover that the trans/gearbox drain plug for early Evos uses a "#6007 WASHER (nylon)", for later models with the tank under the trans, "#11105 O-RING".
As for Harleys being 'agricultural', I'll clip your ear when I catch ya!
Talking of which and referring to ear plugs, long before man invented the computer or even the internet, there was a revolution in elf n safety, which included hearing protection. One of the US bike mags, which I often bought, carried an article based on a lengthy study by the US Forestry Service. They could readily protect most workers' hearing with ear muffs, but had a lot of workers who used bikes and skidoos and wore helmets. They measured up to 115dB inside the ear of their staff, while riding, and inevitably recommended the use of ear plugs, to reduce the risk of hearing loss.
Unfortunately that was back in the mid-1970s and the motorcycle world has a short memory, so that vital info is all but lost. I've been wearing plugs for 40 years! I also wear them in the car on long trips and aircraft. As well as adding comfort, they are the best tuning aid known to man! They can be worth around 20mph on your comfortable cruising speed.

I've proved they work when cruising German autobahns at 115mph! You'll be a darned sight more comfortable at 75mph, especially if you do a long trip - for a day or several days.

ha ha. All the internet parts sites I find seem to be American I did find cycle haven and hog parts uk.
Now back to sump washers I've ordered some imperial copper washer and imperial fibre washers. Would one of those suffice?

Most of us are 'citified':
That would be me in the Stetson, boots, and string tie.
