Graphite valve cover gaskets

Is there anywhere selling the graphite valve cover gaskets anymore ? The current kits appear to be graphite on the intake side, but really thin (not thick like the graphite ones were) on the exhaust side. I have a very seep of oil coming from one stud on the my passenger side exhaust valve cover. Engine is a 3.2.

Not graphite, but Wrightwood Racing sells kits, thick top and bottom.

Looks like it. The ones with the silicone bead are very thin and don't conform to uneven surfaces real well. I don't see a bead on those ones.
