Smear a little rtv on both sides of the gasket. I have pulled tons of iac's off with orange stuff in the gasket.

soak it in oil, let it swell a little and put it back on. while it's off make sure both sealing surfaces are flat and smooth. I've never heard of one leaking there with an undamaged gasket.

You can get new gaskets from Pete Hoffman at Kirban Performance.
