turbo drain line

All,
I am getting ready to install my turbo, after installing a BD pulse exhaust manifold. I forgot to get a gasket for the turbo drain line. Can I get some 'form your own gasket' material at NAPA, and go that route? Any idea on the thickness I should get?

Yeah, gasket paper will work fine. A fresh one is probably 0.020" thick.

That's what I've had to do. Got the roll stuff from the zone. There's a couple different kinds so just make sure you get the type for oil and not water
