Most important ones on 500/550 are
1 between angled bracket and rocker cover at ends. Alloy
2 between allen bolt and fork slider at bottom of fork. Copper
3 on bolt holding top of camchain tensioner alloy
There is also a thin steel shim washer that goes between the filter spring and filter in the housing that is frequently missing as it sticks to the filter and gets slung

There was a whole batch of escort water pumps that had plastic impellors and if they overheated for any reason the impellor fell off the shaft and just sat in the block
