Depending on the climate that you live in. Cold temps SAE10W30SE to hotter climates SAE10W40SE.
Hotter climates still and if you can find it 20W40 and 20W50
Off hand, don't know the size of the crush washer. I assume this is for the oil pan drain plug. They are of a very common size and freely available at just about any motorcycle parts store. They are an aluminium washer, not a copper crush one. I've actually never replaced one ever and have never had a leak. If they are a little deformed you can sand them lightly to even them out.

SOURCE: ENGINE OIL CAPACITY

On the oil filler port is a number with CC after it. This is the crankcase capacity in cc. There are 946cc in one US quart. Do not neglect to fill the filter with oil (but do not overfill) before installing it, and do not consider that amount when filling the crankcase.

Hope this helps,
matt

SOURCE: 98 Yamaha R1 been sitting now seized any answers

Hi,
I'd pull the spark plugs and shoot a little WD40 in the cylinders. try to turn it over without reinstalling the plugs. Hopefully since it's not under any compressive strain, it'll turn over for you. When it does, reinstall the plugs.
I hope this helps... Good luck!
