Get some gasket material and make your own. Use a little permatex to insure a good seal..

I just had the same issue a couple weeks back. Made a pressure tester, found the it leaking pretty significantly from the sensor. Used some black rtv and it seems to be holding fine. I searched high and low for that stupid little square gasket separate, same results as you.

When I went to the GT350 charge tube, PC sends a plug to put in place of where the MAF was in the IC. I had a leak on the plug. 5 min epoxy did its thing.

That is not meant to be a water tight fit. The ever so tiny amount of air that can get out is like .0002% of the volume flowing. That is not a “boost leak”.

This....

There is zero reasons to spend any time trying to "seal" that.
As long as your bolts are snug and the sensor doesn't fall out, you are good.
(even if it did, its hardly enough of a hole to cause much of a boost loss, however you'd have bigger issues cause the car wouldn't run)
