Gasket Retail Question

Long story short, the exhaust broke from the engine, sprayed premix all over the front wheel. I've taken the exhaust off and the gasket is missing a corner.

Can you pick up a replacement 49cc one at SuperCheap? Do you have to go to somewhere specific, or online?

Assuming I can find one, is there anything I should look out for that will make the function better or worse?

Thanks,

You can get gasket material you can cut to the correct shape, or gasket "goo"...

It looks like this that.

Could I put some of this "goo" over the chunk taken out, will it make a good seal or do I need to make an entire new one?

got to supercheap buy a roll of gasket paper and some gasket goo and make one yourself.

palce the gasket paper over the palce where it needs to sit then gently tap around the edges with a hammer and it will cut the gasket out.
