Not sure what your question has to do with the oil filter. Anyway, the copper crush washer for the drain plug only costs a buck at the dealership. Your choice. I got an aftermarket magnetic drain plug and it came with a regular washer. Either is fine. The more important thing is torquing the plug to the right specs. See AK's DIY oil change post.
