Oh, I don't know Norm...I don't think I can risk $1.80 on an unformed part.that requires tweaking.cough.However, I am completely competent to tweak and ruin an OEM gasket getting it installed. There,I said it.I feel better. grrrr. revmaaatin. in my defense, I think there is something wrong with the header pipe flange-a-ma-bob.
ps.I am going to go get me some of those gaskets! TIA

It's a ROL Manufacturing number EG24648001 which fits a bunch of Hondas and other cars. Here's an O'Reillys link which shows applications: http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/detail/ROL0/EG24648.oap?pt=02411&ppt=C0022 Exhaust header to head flange gasket: ROL Manufacturing EG24648001 fits many Hondas and others according to O'Reillys link: http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/detail/ROL0/EG24648.oap?pt=02411&ppt=C0022 Gasket is round so needs to be oval shaped by standing on edge and tapping with hammer. https://www.dropbox.com/s/akhyu7lxg49co77/ROL%20EG24648001%20Exhaust%20gasket%20formed%20from%20round%20to%20oval.jpg?dl=0 The gasket is round so needs to be stood on edge and formed to oval for the end of the header pipe. I bumped it gently with a hammer, turned and bumped again, then repeated until it was formed. I haven't installed one as yet but looks 100%. Cost was about $1.80.
