replacement drain plug washer doesn't match original

The crush washer that came with the OEM replacement oil filter from Mini Mania doesn't seem to fit my drain plug.
Anyone else have this type of plug?
I've been re-using the original washer without leaks, but I'm a little worried.

you can take the used seal/washer in hand and drive over to the local auto part store and easily find a suitable replacement for about a buck ... match the size by eye ... nothing MINI special here

did you buy MINI filters from MiniMania? or a substitute? My OEM filter kits bought from them have been just that , , ,
