AC idler pulley

I am replacing the ac idler pulley (AC Delco part # 36220). The new one came with a flat washer. Do I use the old contoured washers? I would think the front one is the dust cover and no longer needed, to be replaced by the flat new one? What about the one on the rear of the pulley? does that get reused?
Thanks.

Can't speak to the AC pulley but on my tensioner pulley the old dust cover washer gave me trouble. I had to use a generic flat washer and it works fine.

Thanks. I figured it out. Used the old washer on back and new flat washer on front. Took all of 20 minutes to change both belts and AC idler pulley. And did it from above. After reading all the posts about it being a PITA, I found it to be a snap.
