Would be nice if U were more specific. Which engine are U looking for a gasket for?

If polo, goldwagen part number A3666 (topran) works without an issue.
When a car tailgates me, i slow down - then floor it and give them a cloud of diesel smoke to choke on :driving:

If it's an AXE engine, goldwagen stocks it. most engines that I have seen use the thin profile gaskets.

If it's an ACV engine, U can't get a gasket for tappet cover separately. Comes with the tappet cover and agents only.

Don't use silicone on tappet covers, that's when the kak starts.
