It's not really needed as a 'seal'. I don't believe a gasket was even mentioned in the Bentley.
In the Haynes there is a procedure described that uses a gasket to set the drive gear endfloat when the components are new.
If you are reusing the original components, I wouldn't bother.

Moss shows an O-ring on the part of the body of the dist that inserts into the block. You would not need anything else.
