Okay, I have taken yall advice and I just removed the oil screen from my 1.7.
Crush washer: I removed the old washer and just put the new on in place of it? What is the purpose of the crush washer? Why not a regular washer. Remember, I am new to this. Also there was a small broken rubber washer (see picture) when I removed the cover. Does anyone know what it was for and do I need it. Again, thank you so much your understanding of a novice mechanic. Your answers are appreciated as usual. Terry Attached image(s)

My gaskets were on so long they were not recognizable as gaskets. I had to pry around with a screwdriver until they came off. Car was new to me so I, like you assumed no gaskets.
