copper washer goes on the drain plug and two small o rings go on the end of the filter cap post.

it's not a good idea to re-use the copper washers from brake lines since the compression causes them to "work-harden" and be less effective the next time they are used.

Huh? We're talking about the oil plug crush washer, not washers for banjo fittings.
