Dodger, thanks for jogging my memory. That's right- they were trying to give me an O ring. . Mine is old enough not use it. I bought a rebuild Dist . The gasket with it was so old, it crumbled. The parts man ordered another gasket from the re-builder----same problem. . So I made my own, but after adjusting the timeing a few times , it tore. Hence my wanting a metal gasket.
