Anyone else do this by accident? I've read a few other posts saying it shouldn't be an issue but just curious if anyone here has experience first hand. I did remove the old one FWIW.

I guess I'll run it and check for any seepage in a few days... I'm not about to drain all the oil fresh oil out for a stupid copper washer just yet
