Oil Bath Air Cleaner Gasket?

I know it's not an M37. But my Jeepster (1967) has an oil bath, and it had a cork gasket on it according to the parts catalog. Since I couldn't buy one anywhere at the time, I just got a sheet of cork gasket material and two circle cutting dies and made it that way.

I'm guessing this one (based on age) that the gasket is cork and you might as well make it yourself.

The ORD 9 indicates two gaskets required.

One is part of the element assembly with cover and crimped gasket.

The other (and that which I believe you are referring) is the elbow to air cleaner gasket (a circle shape) located within the element and seals the element to the oil bath cleaner on top of the intake within the cleaner. See ORD 9 Figure 03-10 part number A282807. This gasket is cork on my truck. The ORD 9 does not specify the material used.
