Is the drain plug supposed to have a gasket/washer?

OK, dumb question, but can't find answer in a search here or interwebz.  I'm in the middle of doing an oil change for the first (and LAST  :rolleyes: ) time myself.  FINALLY switching to full synthetic so just wanted to do this one myself.  Anyway, is there no gasket/washer around the oil drain plug?  There wasn't one but just seems like there should be.  ???
 
I don't believe mine has one.
 
No not on mine either.
 
Nevermind, upon closer inspection I see there is one integrated to the OEM plug.  Since both are black and the rubber ring is recessed, didn't notice at first.  "On the road again....."
