1992 NS70A *Help!!!

[Kentuckylake94]

Desperately searching for a powerhead to mid-section gasket. Motor is in great shape, however the lower crank seals went causing no vacuum on bottom carburetor. Pulled powerhead to confirm and the gasket is shot. Don’t mind to buy overseas. I just cannot find one to save my life. Pictures attached of the part-part number

GASKET, ENGINE BASE-NO LONGER AVAILABLE

You will have to hand cut one.

What I figured I’d have to resort to. I’ve noticed though the smaller engines up to the 40, while their gaskets of course won’t work, they have copper ports built into the standard gasket material for the exhaust side. Is it truly needed on this 70 or just replace with what was there?

I would replace what was there.
