Hi,
Can you tell me if this gasket requires sealant. I am assuming no, but wanted to ask the experts. Planning on creating a new one from scratch as they are difficult to get in Australia. I am assuming they are made from the standard cork/rubber gasket compound?

Cheers

doesn't require sealant but a smear of hylomar blue is helpful when positioning said gasket while getting it all back togthere before gently torquing the bolts up
