Bill,
When I posted the original message I did check and Tom's NOS had them. I still see that he has them, not sure he really does though.
I posted a pic of the measurements of the two versions I have. The larger OD one came off the neutral indicator light socket on 59-61 dash (its mounted from underneath the dash on the neutral socket). It will work for the Gen | Oil sockets when mounted on top of the dash since its the same ID and thickness. I believe (I don't see another valid reason) the function of the washer is a spacer so there is less material to peen / roll over to hold the socket in place.
The smaller OD version was acquired about 5 years ago from an "I don't remember source", might have been Bart.
Good luck!

Thank you JG - I just requested a Quote for two washers and am awaiting a response.
