where to buy thermal isolating lower plenum to intake manifold gasket?

So I put a kinetix ssv on my car a couple months ago and everyting was fine up intil friday then it starts running rough and throwing codes that point to vac leak.

I check all the hoses and nothing so I am thinking plenum to manifold gasket since I bought the ssv used and re-used the crappy cork gasket it came with.

I serach online for a thermal isolating one as long as I am replacing it might as well do it right. I find P2R racing makes a thermal manifold gasket for the vq. I order it from one of their dealers and get this:



I'm thinking wtf? intake manifold has 6 inline ports down the middle not 2 banks of 3. I get a hold of the dealer all pissed off and it turns out what they sell is the intake manifold to heads gaskets, not the lower plenum to intake manifold. Anyway he is taking it back but what i really need it this:



Anybody know where I can score a thermal one of these quickly?
