Throttle body o-ring

Probably a stupid question, but...
I'm planning to do an oil change on my 2006 DB9 tomorrow and neglected to order a replacement o-ring for the throttle body.
Anyone know if there's a non-AM substitute I might be able to pick up locally?
Thanks.

If it looks good (no nicks, tears, or compression set) then there's simply no reason you can't re-use it. Service manuals tell you to use a new one, but that's for CYA purposes since it eliminates 'judgement'.
