nope, somebody machines solid aluminum washers with O-rings that seal the fittins for external oil lines with swinging or static pick ups.

Yes, all or most of the AN fittings company's offers them. I'm pretty summit and those places sell them.

Then there's a cool racing hardware store right near the Raceway Park in Indy, on the corner almost. Just down the street from Bruce Litton trailers. I always made a point to stop there and stock up on hard to find hardware like these.

I cannot find the ones I use....They are a big aluminum washer with a groove for an o-ring and it came with them...Put that washer with o-ring under the bulkhead nut and snug it...Totally leak free....Can't find them though...Mayb e I will draw one up in Solid Works tomorrow if I have time...

Sorry this is the best picture I have.
I used some large metal washers and cut a piece of our gasket material to fit and seal.

Been that way 7 years? So I guess it's working

guys i'll make a bunch of these tomorrow. just tell me what id hole is needed for the fittings your running. I've got plenty of material on the shelf and lots of o rings in stock. I'm sure I can piece something together to get you going. aluminum disc with o ring groove and o ring. no problem.

And if you don't use thread sealant on the pickup fittings, all the fancy washers in the world won't seal the leaks.

I know not all have access to a lathe but, I machine a receiver groove for an o ring in the face of -12 coupler or bulkhead fitting. Then use the appropriate size O-ring from the 8 dollar Harbor Freight o-ring kit. Seals against outside of pan. No leaks ever...You may be able to buy like this but, the only ones I see have the o-ring recessed into the threads where it wouldn't seem to be as effective for this.

that fitting is already designed with an o ring groove. you need a special o ring to seal it. the washers that I'm making will have the pocket to use this o ring on one side and a groove for an o ring on the other. i'll post a pic after lunch so everyone gets it.
