Honda Civic 2015 LX leaking oil after change, wrong washer used.

Family friend did my oil change for me last Sunday 8/16. I had a pack of 14mm washers that included the exact aluminum crush washer I need but he insisted on using the one that was rubber bonded.

I didn't see a leak for the first day or 2 but I've been teaching myself with youtube on how to do my brakes and It is definitely leaking. Ive had my car in jack stands and a lift for 3 days and its definitely leaking. I had accidentally started my car for a second while it was on stands and chocked and that mightve been when it leaked.

How do I fix this? The friend used a torque wrench for the final tightening t 29lb/feet. Would tightening it possibly fix it? I have a torque wrench. If not what's the best method for replacing the washer with minimum oil loss?

Bonus question doe this rotor look ok? Feels smooth on both sides, and it measures at an average of 22.4mm (first time using micrometer). Idk what the minimum size is supposed to be.

Captain America vs Megaladon

Captain America finds out Megaladon is terrorizing the sea and decides to immediately take care of the problem.

He doesn't have his shield or any firearms but he does have a very long whip which will give him more reach.

He puts on his mini scuba tank, and dives near where the Megaladon is with his long whip and makes sure to get its attention before confronting it head on underwater.

Who wins?
