'Hello Mike Bourget,

I believe that there are only two gaskets on the 'Cam Box'. One at
the front and one at the rear. No gaskets are used between the
halves, and no gaskets are used between the Cam Box and the
cylinders.

Although some members may have extra gaskets for you (I don't have
any), you may have to buy an entire Gaskets Set for a Major
Overhaul, from Fresno Air Parts. $97.50 in today's prices, plus
$6.00 shipping. They are always on page three of Trade-a-plane.

Good Luck.
