Fuel return line banjo fitting crush washers or o-ring?

Wow, that's a mouthful. I couldn't anything in Pelican's parts catalogue and need some asap. When I pulled it off I lost one. The remaining one looks like some kind of fibrous material, I can't tell what. If it weren't for a fuel line I might think it was cardboard or something, but of course it's not that. I tried some copper crush washers, but I'm getting a very slow leak (maybe 1 drop per minute). Now, it might be because I couldn't find the right ID size so had to dremel it out a bit, then lightly ground the surfaces smooth, so maybe I'm not getting a good seal because of my less-than-perfect work. But the gasket that was on there before was definitely not copper.

BTW, this if for a carbureted fuel setup, not MFI. Return line is blocked off.

Any help?

Thanks!

Those use a fiber gasket, not an O-ring. Its a 901.100.915.00.

Thanks so much! FWIW, I did try the parts diagram lookup, but it looks like porsche.com changed the location of them, so the link from Pelican doesn't work anymore.

However, that part #'s "more info" link did bring up a diagram, and it's the banjo fitting at the carburetor. I need the one for the return line at the fuel tank, above the suspension pan. They look to be the same size - do you know if they're the same gasket?
