Isn't an O ring a rubber washer?

I had to change the large o ring on one of mine. Same size used on cap and on filler neck to cam cover seal

Sometimes, you can turn the rubber seal over and refit it and I've had limited luck with this working. To be honest a new 710 cap isn't that much and will probably be much cleaner.

Exactly the same here on a couple i've owned.
