Wayne,
You can make your own. The purpose of these is to fill the void. I would
use Halomar sealant. Make sure the paper gaskets are coated well. Proper
bolt position & torque are critical to get a good seal. Two of these
bolts intersect each other, so bolt length is important. The aluminum
block is soft to don't be surprised if the bolts securing the oil pan
strip. If this occurs get some /Keensert

/. I used these & never had a problem again.
