Icon3 Fuel Rail Spacers

~short story:
Does anybody knows the dimensions (thickness, diameter, etc.) of the stock B18B1 fuel rail spacers?


~long story:
Engine misfired cylinder 3 and 4. So I decided to clean the fuel injectors.Noticed my new-used 1997 LS was missing 2 fuel rail spacers. Took off the fuel rail, ...started to rain..., third one fell-off and is stuck between the thermostat housing and intake manifold.
PLAN:
a) Tried the magnet, but it's made of plastic.................fail
b) small point, long extended flat screw driver...............fail
c) clothes hanger, modified with a hook........................fail
d) thin kebab wooden stake with duck tape in the end.....fail
......so I'm just planning to leave it there and custom make a spacer.

LOL.
I'll consider it as plan (g)

Tried Google, Acura Dealership online reference, Ebay, Amazon, and still can't get the numbers!
At least I found out the studs were: M6 x 22mm w/ 1.0 threading..........

The only part you need to worry about is the thickness. Outside doesn't matter and inside either as long as it's big enough to go over the stud. I just stacked washers for my fuel rail spacers.

A million thanks!
I went to Home Depot, bought the (14) 1/4 cut washers [$0.11/each], stacked it on two sides and left the middle deleted.... so far no leaks!!!
Again thanks, you are a genius! ^_^
