Air Control Valve Gasket?

I was just wondering if there's ANY place I could buy the gasket to the Air Control Valve?

I removed my emissions according to the writeup, but when I just use a blocking plate, air seems to get through (naturally).

I figure if I can just use the stock Air Control Valve gasket it'll stop the air from flowing through. BUT, I cannot seem to find this ANYWHERE.
Anyone know a way to help me out.

the 12a gasket is no longer available, you just need to use silicon, or make one.

Make one. You can buy gasket material from you local auto parts store and cut it to the shape you need.

I may have a new ACV gasket you can have. They come with engine rebuild kits and I never throw anything away LOL. I'll have a look tomorrow if I have a chance before work.

I used Black Silicon Gasket Maker...

Squeezed a lot out and spread it about 1/4 inch thick over the entire plate that i made and bolted it down tight...

Workd great..... I think

Its really easy to make one if you buy the roll of gasket material from auto zone, etc. Its only like 6 bucks I think (its been a while) and there is quite a bit of it in the roll.

it is also good when you end up taking your intake manifold off and then realize that it is a special order part. You can just make one as a temporary and then when the actual gasket comes ion, you can change it over real quick.
