Water Pump gasket.... I heard there was a gasket for the water pump for the '98 models, but when I removed my water pump I didn't notice a thing.
Is this true, is there one there??

Is it possible to re-use this "paper" style gasket again or should I buy another one?

Yeah, you'll definitely need to replace the gaskets. If the newer versions work, then cool. I used new paper gaskets on mine. Clean up the mating surfaces too.
