First of all, if you have an S4, it is recommended NOT to use a front oil cover gasket due to the o-ring problem.

Second, if you cannot get the water pump gasket, I've used just RTV to seal everything up in emergnecies no problem.

I prefer to use gray RTV on the front cover and oil pan, and as ReTed said, the water pump as well, provided the flanges are reasonably flat and not too badly pitted.
