While you're at it, its worth getting a crush washer for the mesh oil strainer too (different size to the sump drain bolt).
Again, you may well be able to re-use the original one, but better safe than sorry.

I'm not sure how important this is but, if your washer is the same as my Evo (85250051A), then it'll be handed and should be fitted with the flat side against the crankcase:



I didn't know that the first time I changed it. I had no problems though so, either I was lucky or it doesn't actually make much difference. (Must be a reason for the design though - anybody know?)
