56 272 engine gaskets?

Hi Folks,
I am trying to find just 1 gasket-the Oil filler tube gasket? It is located below the intake manifold. I have catalogs from mid 50 and Sacramento Ford and it seams neither has that gasket. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
ED

My Fel-Pro book doesn't list a gasket for the oil filler tube either

Filler tube gasket is a new one to me. Never heard of it, and it brings to mind a muffler bearing .

I pulled out all of my catalogs yesterday and found Vintage Ford in Huntington beach has a bunch of NOS entire engine rebuild kits and sold me one for $40 bucks!!!! The gasket I was looking for he called a roker valve or vallye pan gasket.
Thanks for all the help.

Now you can add 'roker valve' to your list...( I have several if you need one).

Thank you "Buns" but I hope that this gasket set I located will be the last I will need for this motor. I am planning on getting the drivetrain back in within the next 30-60 days with good weather so I can paint and reassemble.
Thanks again for all your help.
