No. It's not that big of a deal and if you have a leak it won't really affect much. Two flat surfaces and it should seal just fine. If you really wanted, copper spray or copper sealant, but either way no gasket is required.

Where can I find that copper spray stuff?? Advance auto and Autozone stores? How about WG to mani and WG to dump?? Spray or gasket?

no gasket there.
just make sure to machine or belt sand both surfaces perfectly flat prior to assemble.

For your WG, I just used copper sealant. Holding fine, but then again I've only driven the car 400miles or so.
