Aaron,
I found this:

In HEQ5 there are following bearings:

6x 6006 2RS - these are main RA and Dec shafts bearings
2x 30205 - tapered roller bearings
4x 689z (or 618/9) - these are small bearings for worm shafts
I used EZO bearings for worm and SKF/Timken for others.

As for plastic washers - these are used for precise placement of worm at worm wheel. There probably should be some washers already, because if you want to replace them, you need to use new one with the same thickness. I cut out proper dimension washers from teflon foil.

Hope that helps.
