Yes, but there should be a lip that the screen fits inside.  The rubber
gasket should be between the flat lip and the bowl.

As TeriAnn says, the gasket needs to be replaced every few years;
particularly if you use the stock cork.  I cut a gasket from thick Neoprene
sheet many years ago that lasted much better for me; and the rebuild kit I
bought recently from TRF had Neoprene (or something similar).
