Cubber, I buy very few paper gaskets, as I find it as easy to make my own as to make the trip to the Case IH dealer. If you buy sheet gasket material, it is easy to make one by placing the material over the surface you plan to gasket. Then if it has dowell pin locaters, you can peen around them to set the material flat. Then I keep several sizes of ball bearings handy and place them over the bolt holes and one by one tap the ball bearing till the hole forms in the gasket. I then place a bolt in that hole a couple threads deep to hold everything in place and go all around and repeat the process for each bolt hole. once the bolt hole pattern is complete, tap the outside perimeter, then the inside perimeter to establish the contour then remove the gasket and cut out the contour, and "voila", the gasket is ready to apply what ever "Oozy Smoozy" you use and install. This should work fine for your transmission cover. YOu will have a large slug of gasket material from the center, but useable for some other time when you need a piece that size or smaller. I get a lot of mileage out of a roll of gasket material as I throw very little away. I keep several thicknesses on hand.
