68 442 manifolds question

OK, now that I've located the correct manifolds for '68 and have them nice and pretty, what type of gaskets were used originally when mounting them? Or was there no gasket?

If there was one, where's the best place to get them?

.................................................. .....................

With a little research found that they did not come with gaskets from the factory. Hi-five to me!

No gasket required but make sure the manifolds are flat, may require surfacing.

Well if there was a delete button, I would have simply deleted the thread. But there isn't, so it's still here. Seeing as I answered my own question, I'm not sure why people keep responding.

Because the alternative would require us to actually be doing WORK at the office...
