Question help! gasket ?'s

ok so blew out the copperseals so time for new ones, there were some at advancedauto parts and they were fel pro but didnt have any part number, they were steel core with some kinda composite that almost felt like those thin magnets you get that have advertising on it, are these the same ones that have a part number of 1406 in summit? or should i keep looking? thats the best description i can give i guess sorry, but they are fel pro and are steel core with a composite laminate on both sides
