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.
I machine the groove so the o ring stays more on the face and doesn't get squished toward the center where it might get cut easier by the edge of the hole cut in the pan...at least that's what I was thinking the first time I did it and couldn't find the o-ringed washers locally the day I needed them...

I couldn't ever find those to fit the -12 fittings, they didn't go that big and I tried several suppliers. Well one said they made them but would have to buy a box of 100 and weren't going to do that unless I wanted to buy the box so I went with the seals that PittsburgeRacer is showing from DTI. (i'm trying to look up their contact or Website but not finding them)
Earl's doesn't carry -12 either, they stop at -8 or -10 but don't have for -12 or i would have went with the Stat-o-seals.

Who makes these Pittsburghracer?
Sorry Sammy I just came in from the shop. I'm not even sure he's still in business as the link no longer works. Maybe Jerry will make some up and make them more available.
Those are what I use....Absolutely leak free...
