I had good luck with the $39 Auto-Zone special.  It came with a
gasket, but I had to re-use the existing spacer.  It was a superior
unit to the old one (original?)I took off.  The housing halves were
screwed together on the new unit, which I prefer to the pressed
assembly of the old one.  I was able to disassemble the new one, and
presumably I could replace the diaphram later if I could find one. 
Real nice, and hasn't given me any trouble over 2000 miles.  Don't
know if it's a GM standard, though.....the local Auto-Zone had to
order it in from one of their warehouses.....
