Man, it's not easy tracking down this part number. I did manage to find the bracket that's right next to the engine coolant drain bolt. It's on 6701A Engine & Transmission Wiring Harnesses (page 256) part 18-054. I know it's not the bolt, but it's a lead.
Its just a regular 12mm bolt with an aluminum washer.
I think its M8x1.50.
Just get one at the auto parts store or Ace Hardware (if you can't find your original).

I was thinking of that too (just get generic one).

I spent like probably 2 hours to read the service manual, from first page to the last, then back to the first. Still cant find it

Its time for Generic stuff ...
Yea, generic it is, I looked for it, the pictures of the center housing you can see the hole for it at the bottom. You should find a titanium one, to save weight and be ridiculously hardcore

where u got the titanium one ? and how much
save weight lol ! like what? 0.25 lbs ? not even. lol
neither the bolt nor the crush gasket washer are listed in the parts manual
I suspect that the crush gasket washer is the same as the oil pan drain bolt gasket
if you get a generic bolt it needs to be the right material. I believe the existing bolt is brass, but aluminum or stainless steel will work. A steel bolt may be easier to find, but may have a corrosion issue long term.
When I was browsing MMS's stock part page, they have some new scan pages on the left side thats much cleaner than the parts.pdf that they have on the site. I always wonder if they added any new parts to it. Ahh huh !
Correct -
I picked up a new 2010 RX8 GT engine coolant drain bolt crush washer (gasket) from Mazda and did talk to and check the torque in the rotary repair manual (not listed in our online version). The torque specs are 12-15 ft-lbs. The crush washer part number for reference is 9956-41-000 131
Oh yes I searched
