just get those rubber oem gaskets from autozone and change the o-rings while your at it. Just make sure you read your repair manual to see what to torque it to. You DO NOT want to overtorque it because it will crack. Make sure you use a torque wrench. If you don't have one you can pick one up for cheap at autozone. Its a really easy job to do.
