Classic/Antique Car Repair: 1972 Dodge Dart choke pull off gasket, dodge dart, slant 6

Question
have a 1972 Dodge Dart Custom 4 door sedan with a 225ci slant 6 and I need a gasket for the choke pull off pan in which sits the thermostat....the pan itself fits down into the exhaust manifold and there is a gasket that fits between the pan and the exhaust manifold....that is what I need...any ideas ???

Answer
I'm pretty sure there is no gasket there. The metal holder for the thermostatic spring that operates the choke simply sits right on the well in the manifold - no gasket is required as there is no need for a seal.  I double checked to make sure, the parts book shows no gasket either.  Maybe someone put one there at one time, but that isn't the way it came from the factory (and doing that would foul up the choke setting).

This is not the choke pull-off, by the way - the choke pull off is vacuum operated and sits up at the top of the carburetor with a vacuum hose going to it.  The thing that sits in the well in the manifold is what turns the choke on when the engine is cold - it is adjustable for lean/rich running at start up - to accomodate different climate changes during the year.
