Default Stock Tbelt Tensioner Washer Missing?

Before I button up the rebuild on my stock Tbelt tensioner can someone familiar with the tensioner on an '85 16V let me know if I'm supposed to have the #57 washer here, and if so what size it should be? It looks like it's only used on the 32v but I'd rather be sure. See pics. TIA.

its the thickness thats important as it can change how soon the timing belt warning comes on,

NOTE the white bushing you have looks to be in good condition,
what can happen with old bushings is pieces of this bushing break off then fall into the well that the pin sits,
this can cause a break in the ground track, so check that this well is also clean.
