Default Anyone have a PN exhaust gasket

Hey guys,
I need a part number for the exhaust manifold gaskets for my Gen 6 454mag. I'm getting a ticking noise like i'm getting a leak. Any help would be appreciated. Is an automotive gasket ok for this? Thanks!

You will see black where the gasket is failing if it has leak. I would check around all areas of the manifold first. They don't usually go bad once they have been on for a while. Ticking is usually a lifter or rocker.

The engine is short of brand new. I've already had to change the intake gaskets. I didn't put this engine together it was in the boat when I bought it. It doesn't sound like a lifter, but a rocker maybe. I'm going to be working on it this weekend and I wanted to have them with me just in case. Thanks for the reply.

You can use automotive gaskets without a problem.
