Johnjem,
It would be a little easier to decipher what you are asking if you didn't use the shorthand.

I'm kinda slow and I need time to think about an answer, so if you type slow, it's easier for me to figure out.

TIA

Dallas

Don't believe him John.  I don't care how slow you type he will still take forever to figure it out  :)

Find the right size sealing washer - proper thickness and diameter, or convert both ends to AN style fittings.
Never saw a paper gasket for that application - too hot.
