Default Drain plug o ring options
So changed my oil in preparation for warm weather tomorrow and realized that I forgot to get a new oring. I thought I had one stashed somewhere but can't seem to locate it. Short of waiting till morning and going to get one can anyone tell me if the clutch cable oring will be ok?

It fits on there but looks small to me, no idea what the size is of that compared to the drain plug oring but figured I'd ask


Thanks

they don't need changed each time, if it looks good reuse it. clean and inspect it & put a drop of oil on it before tightening it back up

Yeah I know, last change I left the original in. This time it's pretty flattened and garbage so it needs changed. I know I had a set of them but can't find them for the life of me.
