261 engine/distributor gasket?

I have the 1959 261 engine in my 53 pickup. The truck has a Vertex magnet that I just had tested/refurbished. When I removed it from the engine, there wasn't a cork gasket between the magneto/distributor hold down bracket and the block, although there is an indention on both the block and the bracket for what looks like one.

Has anyone found this elusive gasket?
