things, i dried air fired it and something didnt sound right, so i opened it
and a washer came out of the power tube and i looked around it and it was
cracked. how much do these things run? sorry for the noob question i just
started up again. any answers are appreciated thanks.

They aren't much.  If you call Tippmann, they may send you one for free.

Aye I'd agree with Scotchyscotch here....Aluminum Powertubes are the way to go.
