Washers needed

Hey, guys:

Does anyone out there have a couple of what the parts book calls "D.C." washers (double-coil)? Specifically, I'm looking for the D.C. washer that goes on the hood prop where it hooks to its swivel point on the car (I think this one is 5/16" in I.D.). Also, isn't there one of these that's supposed to go on the hood latch mechanism under the pull rod slide that keeps the slide at the
correct height? I would swear I've seen them on there before on Tigers and
Alpines but my car didn't have one and I can't find one in the parts book.

Bottom line is that I am for sure in need of the one that goes on the prop rod
and, if there is supposed to be one on the hood latch mechanism, then I need it as well. As usual, I appreciate any assistance.
