Spark Plug Gaskets

No, the title is not a joke. When replacing the valve gover gasket (piece of feces, BTW) the outer gasket is one piece and then there are two inner assemblies that gasket the spark plugs in pairs. Anyone have a part number or source for the spark plug gasket assemblies? Apparently they are built in pairs with a small loop (bolt hole or stud) and sprues that hold the plug gasket rings in position. Some of the gasket kits come with the plug gaskets too but the Beck Arnley set I purchased did not. 2+ hours of search engine combing has yielded frustration in spades but no good info. Anyone?

www.realoem.com <------ Great place to find part numbers. How ever I dont think you can get just the plug gaskets.

*EDIT*
Confirmed no individual part number

A simple way to do it is to call up the parts department of the dealer, tell them what you are looking for and they will look for it for you.

You can't get the spark plug gaskets by themselves. The new valve cover gasket should come with the spark plug gaskets.
