getting all new gaskets for the turbo (can't find part number)
I'm going to go ahead and remove the turbo I'm having a problem with smoking and put all new gaskets on including oem exhaust and oil and water gaskets to and from the turbo. Here is the only problem. I've got everything on order threw mazda trix I just can't find 13-6311 in the picture below at mazdatrix. Just wondering if you guys could help me find it. Thanks.

It comes with their whole gasket set for the engine. But if you'll just call them and tell them that part number or that you want the gasket for the oil feed line that connects to the turbo, then they will get you one. Same with say, the studs that hold the downpipe on. Just tell them what you want and they WILL sell it to you.
Or you could go to the auto store and buy some gasket paper and trace the outline of the needed gasket on to the paper and use a razor to cut it out.

THats how I have all the gaskets now but something is leaking somewhere and to just make sure it's nothing i'm doing even though I've made tons of these gaskets I'm going to go ahead and get oem ones. Should I use any rtv or not on these gaskets? Thanks for the help hailers.

If in doubt, then buy the factory parts. I use a skim film of RTV on mine. You don't want to gob it on where it squeezes into the oil intake hole and maybe fall off and block a passage. But you knew that.
The skin film of RTV will make it easier to remove years from now when you want to remove the turbo again,
