Fresh water filler cap

The parts catalog shows a "DECK FILL WATER BK SEADOG", Beneteau PN 111731 for the deck fitting assembly with cap. Does yours look this this: Sea-Dog : Quality Marine, Industrial and Rigging Hardware
Do you absolutely have to have an identical replacement as long as the threaded cap fits?
(edit) I just noticed that the listing at the link is for the complete fitting ...and I THINK you only need the cap. It's worth asking them if they sell JUST replacement caps with the key for it. I'd suggest you check out Perko replacement caps, but if I'm not mistaken Beneteau''s fittings are all metric, which limits your choices from US retailers.

The deck fittings that beneteau used on the 423 are Amiot which are made in France and they are aluminum. When I bought my 2005 423 the waste fill caps where seized so I replaced the entire unit with stainless steel. I was going to go with the original Amoit but they were astronomically expensive. Rig Rite sells them and also has replacement caps for $119 which does not include the 0 ring... extra $8
Also, while a winch handle does fit, do you have the beneteau handle that has the fuel and water fittings?
Good Luck!
