Replacing Vacuum Hoses - Good source?

Burning Brakes
Copper/Brass Crush Washers are used to seal the Vacuum Banjo Bolts on the Intake and J Boot. They start with a dished out shape, and once tighten, are an excellent seal, however, once moved, twisted or loosened, never seal again.

I did take off the banjo on the hard pipe from the turbo to the intercooler, so I'll look for a couple crush washers for that (those 2 washers did look brass/copper to me now that you mention it). I never removed the banjo on the intake manifold itself, but i did loosen it to get easier access to the lines.
