You're both/all welcome. I've tried tracing gaskets before. Simple ones are ok, but I can never seem to locate holes just right. Doing an inner cut usually turns into a dog's breakfast too (for me anyway). It took me most of a day (on and off) to complete this one on the computer. But I was pleased with the end result (this time).
The local shop "guessed" this gasket by itself - a special order (why?) - would cost "about" $12. But the last time they "quessed" (guess-quoted) something, it was going to be ~$10 and turned out to be ~$30 once it arrived. It was under $6 for a roll of gasket material from the local auto store instead - and there's still plenty left over. Already had locktite aviation sealant and the hollow punches that were a few bucks from GoLo.
Micka... Tight bolts, yeah... Just think, if it wasn't for some guy at the factory not doing up that last bolt...
