Differential to axle housing gasket?

Differential to axle housing gasket?
Is there a gasket for the differential? I'm swapping my differential to a new axle housing, and I'd like to put the proper gasket in there. I've found part diagrams that show a gasket, but don't list the part number... Anybody here know it? Do I have to custom cut something?

I've also found threads recommending Hylomar 101. Hylomar is not readily available in Canada, and I'd rather not wait for it to ship from Europe if I don't have to. Any alternative recommendations?
Thanks!

Don't remember there being a gasket on the Dll...if memory serves me right...it just had an adhesive. The Defender, Dl use a gasket, which is the axle you have pictured...that is not a Dll axle housing, hubs are wrong.
There are plenty of gasket making adhesives that would do the job. Just talk to your local parts store rep.

Usually, my go-to gasket adhesive/maker is ultra gray prematex, especially for aluminum surfaces...but for axle housings...

Holds up better to rear end dope.
