Bill swears it's not.  Isn't the stock gasket more of a metal shim of some kind?  I've never seen one.

Looks OEM as Sean said.  I think Victor made them back then.

That's a stock NA gasket, not a turbo engine gasket. The center port for the EGR is a single hole not that weird thing you have there.

If there is NO Metal in it then what's it made of?? Victors have stamped metal as I have used many & have a new on in the shop along with 3 old ones.
Just grab a new Victor for $50 from Napa. Part number is MS????? I can look if needed?
Cheers!
