Default Amuse R1 exhaust gaskets

I need gaskets for my Amuse R1 dual exhaust. Do I need something specific? I need 45mm gasket for the other rear section and 60mm between cat (2.5" Berk) and mid pipe. I'd rather avoid exhaust paste unless it's the best choice. I do have OEM ring gasket which fits between OEM cat and exhaust pipe but I guess that I need something in correct size.

Cheers

eBay.

I think the rear is 2" and the forward 60mm triangle.

I can find 60mm triagle gasket from nowhere. I guess that the oem port gasket won't work between cat and exhaust... I found out that the Amuse flange is not straight . Amuse flange is the same size as OEM cat. Maybe it would be easiest if I used OEM cat and port ring gasket. I'd still have to seal the flange (not straight) with something like exhaust paste. I could carefully try to straighten the flange or even grind it a bit.

I found only one 45mm oval gasket from ebay. The outer dimensions are bigger than exhaust flanges, though. Amuse flange: ID 45mm, OD 80mm x 113mm.

Would it be ok to use exhaust paste as finding the gaskets seems to be hard?

Paste is absolutely fine. I have used paste on my Mugen system without any issues whatsoever.
