Default Gasket for 3 bolt downpipe to SFR catbypass pipe joint?

What is everyone using for a gasket for the 3 bolt flange joint between the stock downpipe and a 3" SFR cat bypass pipe? I got the cat bypass off my parts car and for the life of me can't remember what gasket was there. I know the stock downpipe to cat is a crush ring but there isn't provisions for this with the SFR pipe. I assume it is a copper gasket? Anyplace to get it beside SFR - don't want to wait to have one shipped from CA.

Thanks,

Yes, copper. In a pinch, however, Napa sells metal/fiber exhaust gasket material that you can cut to shape with shears. I once used it for this, and it worked well for many miles. I'd still order a copper one for next time it is apart, but it'll get you running in the meantime. I posted pictures and part numbers previously -- will see if I can find it.
