Help identify o'ring/washer

I have a shocktech aftershock autococker that was converted to a pump. There is an o'ring/washer (I say washer since it was flat) that sits in the body of the gun where the regulator screws in. The washer was flat circle and the inside of the circle had a small cut out missing on one side. The washer fit in the neck pictured below. Anyone have any idea where to find one of these or a part number? I believe it is the source of my problem with air leakign down the barrell.

Is the o-ring off the top of the regulator? It not, then it was most likely put in there as spacer to get the macro line input of the regulator to line up with the grip/asa better. I've seen it done many times. Usually it's just a random o-ring thrown in there, size doesn't matter as long as it fits and does not block the flow. Either way, if it's off the reg or a spacer, it will not make the gun leak down the barrel. You could either have a bad cup seal or o-ring on your valve. Are you cocking the gun before airing it up? If not, try that and let us know.

That oring is just in there as a spacer, there isn't designed to be an oring in there. Air coming out of the barrel makes me think bad cupseal. Could be a ring around the valve though. Also like he said, cock the marker before airing it up

Probably this or similar, and it doesn't have anything to do with a barrel leak.

Yah, any problems there would not show up down the barrel.

That's either a bad cup seal/seat or overpressure from the mainspring.
You can tell that differences by whether it leaks when it's cocked.

If it leaks when it's cocked, it's the cup seal.
If the leak stops when it's cocked, then it's a spring problem.
