Part # for metal fuel pipe gasket?

Does anyone know if these are still available? There's an O Ring on the subaruparts.com website which I ordered but I seem to have misplaced the shim that connects the fuel pipes. Anyone know the part number or have any spares?

Re: Part # for metal fuel pipe gasket?

Which part do you refer to? The only fuel line in the illustration is the one which connects the fuel rails... and the O-rings are #8. What shim do yo mean?

Those are pipes for the egr system. No fuel, per se, running through them. I've lost those shims as well with no ill effects. Thats a particularly difficult area to get to, sorry i couldnt have been more helpful, gl

I think there are also shims in the front of the fuel rail for the injectors as well. I just happened to grab the diagram from the EGR area. I'll check again. I'm just worried if there's fuel going through I wouldn't want to cause a fire over a 2 dollar (potentially) part

It's actually going to the fuel line. Is it safe to just replace the o ring and go without the shim?
