[OMC-Boats] Need help with Props, Thrust Washers 1970 Sportsman

It appears that my prop has been running without a thrust washer.
What damage could happen without it. My original OMC prop is pretty
chewed up so I wanted to replace it. It is the white one in the
pictures. What is the missing thrust washer supposed to do? The
first prop I bought is a new Michigan prop 14x16 012092 that is
supposed to fit however the back inside is different than the OMC
prop. The next prop I bought is a Michigan prop 14x18 012093 PR 124
and it looks similar on the inside but has two channels running
through it which the original does not. Hopefully the pictures may
help someone figure this out for me.

Thanks,

  Bill
