I have the flat washers that you are looking for, and my parts bin was still marked with the correct part number also shown in the Aqualung Repair Manual available online at this website. The same that is on my bookshelf. The number is 0518-06, description is Washer.
I have two versions that I just tried for fit in the same valve as you have, and either one will fit. One is the original OEM flat rubber material like your existing one, and the other is Nylon, and I don't remember if they provided this as a later version or if I got it elsewhere. I would start with the original, as I never had trouble with them.
It is certainly possible that an o-ring of the correct diameter would seal, but for a trouble free seal over the long run you should use the right item. The o-ring might continue to crush down in use and not let the brass socket and ball stay tight enough together to keep an effective metal to metal seal. Anyway, since the correct washers are available you might as well use what the manufacturer did.
If you want me to send them PM me with your mailing address, and I will slip one of each in a simple envelope and mail them. If you like them and they will do the job you can send me $3 and keep the spare one for future use. Wait until you are satisfied that they work. If you decide not to use them just mail them back... no problem.
To install without damaging it, I strongly suggest that you place the washer fully into place down in the valve body, then screw in the ball socket. It will be a snug fit down in the hole (but loose on the socket), and if you install it on the socket first you risk damaging the washer when you snug it down. Tighten the socket very snug with an exact fitting allen wrench.
