83 300d monovalve washer order

Diesel Gods,

I am in the process of replacing my monovalve with the rebuild kit.
When I took out the old...i can see the plunger is ripped.
The weird thing is when I pulled it out, the washer order was as follows:
valve-big thick washer-wave washer-cylinder (wave washer touching the magnet in the cylinder)

I have searched all 17 pages with the word "monovalve" and have not seen anything other than the excellent webpage on monovalve removal.
I have a feeling some lame brain replaced this before I acquired the car, so here is my question:

Is the monovalve washer order for a 83 300d ( valve-small washer-wave washer-thick washer-cylinder) ?

or (valve-small washer-wave washer-small washer-thick washer-cylinder) ?

I have read posts describing both 1 and 2 small washers but on different models.

If I am in need of the "small washer"...is there a particular metal I need to use ?

Thanks .
