Hi there, you can look for on ebay classic cars parts ( hillman, humber, sunbeam), good price, and good items.

The correct original gasket for all alloy headed engines is the steel - asbestos - copper sandwich. Engines with cast iron heads were fitted with a simple varnished steel pressing. Hope this helps. If you need clarification of exact part no.s, let me know. Regards - Neil
