Default AC gaskets???

I took my AC system out a while back and in the process messed up one of the lines. Now its time to put the AC back in and I have a new line but I think I need a gasket for it. Its the line the runs to the top passenger side of the condenser. Does anyone know what kind of gasket, if any, is needed in this spot? Thanks in advance.

I just bought a new one of those. It should have come with an o ring installed on the condensor side, but you have to buy the gasket for the other side from GM. I couldn't find it anywhere else. F*ckin GM, paid 60 dollars for a new line and had to pay 6 bucks more for the damn seal that should have come with it.

My dealer had it in stock.
