I know that one of the places I checked had 'em. Never bought it, but I know it was available online(zip corvettes?) and at one of the local chain shops. Less than $5.

I couldn't find it either. none of the local shops had it nor Chevy dealers. customer service at Ecklers immediately knew what I was talking about. said they don't carry it. said it really wasn't needed but if I wanted one that I could easily make my own. that was yesterday. so if I can't come up with by the weekend, I will make one.
have you taken the booster off? if you have, did you have as big a problem as I did with the 4 nuts under the dash? mine were nylon locking nuts. absolutely no room to work. finally used a 20" extension, a swivel adapter and a deep well socket to get the last one off.
also, the nuts I took off were 9/16ths, the threads on the booster are 15mm. found that out because I replaced the nylon locking nuts. it has not been fun.

I know what gasket you are talking about it. I got mine from Zip. After I got it I wondered my I wasted my time looking for it. Its really not a gasket. It was more like a spongy piece of foam.

I wouldn't worry about it.
