Stupid Gasket Question

My oil filler cap gasket has disintegrated. I want to replace it but I can't seem to find one. Can anyone point me to a source??

Thanks.

I would just go to a harware store and find an o-ring that fits it.

Maybe the parts store. You can't get just the gasket but you can buy an aftermarket oil cap. Then you have the option of using the new gasket with the original cap.
