Default Screamin' Eagle Ventilator Gasket info?

Needing two part #11934 but shop doesn't have them stock, and shipping charges being 50% of cost, it's not worth ordering online.

So was going to make them myself. Question is, what material are these made of? Are they rubber gaskets? Paper gaskets? O-ring gaskets?

If you have worked with this part, I could use the info.

Part number 7 in the diagram.

I just did a Arlen Ness Big Sucker. It has a similar part. The BS part is a rubber O-Ring. So what ever you make. It needs to be air tight and oil resistant. And maybe High Temp also.

I thought about using the o-ring gaskets from my Big Sucker, but wasn't sure if that would be a problem or not. The BS has a slot for the o-rings, whereas the Ventilator doesn't.
I'm going from the Big Sucker to the Ventilator just because I like how the Ventilator looks. Of course, I like how the Big Sucker looks too. Just mixing it up and trying something new for kicks.

Just bumping this thread up.

I thought about re-using the rubber o-ring style gaskets, but the Ventilator doesn't have the same grooves that the stock and Arlen Ness air cleaner assemblies use to hold the o-rings in place. From looking at the pic, they appear to be more of a washer style gasket. For all I know, they're copper washer gaskets. :P

Ya I kinda thought that FXRP woulda got back with you on this. Like I said before, I'd just pick something out. Not to thick. Oil and temp resistant. Air tight.

Hey thanks!

[edit] Had to call the Harley shop to see if that had that new part number. They close in 25 minutes.... but they said no. I should have ordered them three days ago when I had the chance. :P Could have been working on it tonight.

I'm still considering it! Thing is, I have a 1000 mile trip coming up, and don't want to experiment with something and then maybe have to re-assemble the entire thing a second time.
