Greetings aav

I have just purchased a 1998 V40 2.0i, here in the UK, and I want to
change the engine oil asap, as I do with any vehicle when I acquire it.
Question is - what dimensions and material are the sump plug washer?
(Solid Copper suitable for annealing and re-use, squishy disposable
thing ... etc ...?)
I can't tell until its off, and although I'm pretty sure I have a
suitable replacement here I don't want to get caught out.

Cheers
