Default F***cking oil leaks from main cap bolts on side of block WTF

so i redid my entire oil pan gaskets again cause i thought it was leaking from it just to find out its leaking from the 2x ( on each side) 6mm allen bolts that help hold the main caps to the block. when i took them off there is no washer or anything to stop oil from leaking out, how do i fix this??? anyone else have this issue?
