Default Oil leak gone bad

Today I realized that my 00 WS6 was leaking oil so I went to check it out and it was coming from the drain bolt at the bottom of the oil pan. I went to tighten it and the leak just got worse. In an attempt to fix it I think I have striped the bolt.

My two main questions are, Is there a washer or gasket between the bolt and the pan? Where can I purchase it and what is it called/ part number?

yes, theres a washer on the bolt. you might have to re-tap it if its stripped. no biggie.
