another option would be to get some gasket paper, or better yet, a sheet of neoprene and spent 10 minutes with a razor blade and a cheap gasket punch set. There's nothing particularly magical about most pre-cut gaskets (I do say most, as there are some exceptions, like the VW steel core neoprene valve cover and oil pan gaskets which really are easier to use than roll-your-owns)
I suggest neoprene because if it is installed on a clean, dry surface it can be resued 3 or 4 times without replacement. Therefore if you're going to use it, either install without sealer or adhesive, or else glue it to one surface only (so it sticks to that surface next time you disassemble)
