Rollmaster's instructions say "Use a light coating of sealant on the larger plate to prevent oil weeping between the oil pump and block without blocking main oil passage of that plate". No gaskets are included, just make your own with rtv for the big spacer and install the small one dry. Glad to hear you got your spacers made. That sucks you can't buy just the spacers though.

It doesn't specify to put sealant on both sides of the large spacer but I would.
