Z31 manual Tremec tranny question/Please Help

Hey friends,

I'm hoping someone can give me a little sound advise! I'm currently repairing a leak from the input shaft seal and I have a question regarding a gasket that goes against the transmission. This gasket presses the throw out bearing fork guide that slides over the input shaft.
I've been told I need a special androbolic gasket, rather than RTV gasket sealer. Can anyone tell me what I need to use here?
I would hate to put this back together and have another problem...
Thanks in advance!

Oh, I'm also having trouble finding the rubber shield for the throw out bearing fork. It's torn a little bit and I'd like to replace it. I can't find it on the internet anywhere! Can anyone tell me where I might find one?? Thanks again...

Is the transmission a true Tremec and not a Nissan FS5R90A (aka, Borg Warner T5)? I'm not sure I have every seen a rubber shield for the fork, but T5s I've seen had been out of the car at least once and may have been tossed. I suspect you do have a Tremec swapped for the original 90A and the questions and parts are specific to the Tremec.
