Guys, have a annoying leak at the couplink between the oil pump and the radiator. Tried to tighten it and it just won't stop its leaking. Is there something like a copper washer at that connection I might try to get it to stop? Any suggestions welcome
Thanks

There are copper cupped washers that fit. Check JmK.

I found with the stainless replacement hoses, which have very hard stainless fittings, the copper washer is just about a requirement. J>R> carries a box of them. W.W. Grainger has them among other places. They're inexpensive. Here's where I got them - I bought several sizes:
