gasket for vtec assembly off of head?

i tore my engine down and have been rebuilding it. my overhaul kit did not come with the gasket that is on the back side of what i 'think' is the vtech device on the head. its a three oval hole gasket thats about 3 inches by 2 inches and tapering as a trapezoid. do those normally get replaced with a rebuild?

how many alignment dowels should be on the transmission? one or two?

also does anyone have an idea to find some decent photos of the accessory setup on teh engine. its been a month sense i removed everything and while most stuff is labeled i have some parts im not sure on.

thanks.

Do you know if the transmission and cylinder head dowels are the same size? I'm trying to find them on amazon

They are different. Plug your car in and start searching for part numbers.

You wont get parts diagrams like this on amazon. I would recommend finding the part you need here and cross referencing it wherever you want to buy.
