It should have a fiber gasket that goes with it. You may have to buy a needle valve kit to get the gasket. I haven't seen them sold alone, but I could be wrong.

All you need is the engine # from the shroud and you'll be good to go. While you have the main jet out, that bolt, make sure the tiny openings are clear. A piece of solid copper wire or even a piece of guitar string will be all you need to run through the holes...
