Indirect Piston split, paper gasket?

I'm rebuilding my front brakes. These are -1987 vented. The indirect piston came apart during disassembly. It looks like a press fit and it wasn't tight. There is a paper gasket between the two pieces. Has anyone replaced this? Does it matter what it is, maybe because of heat? When pressing these together again, should I use a little blue Loctite or leave it dry and loose?
Also, one of the two o-rings where the parking brake lever attaches was torn. The outer one was fine and looks fine, but the inner one was brittle and missing a section. Does anyone know which rebuild kit has these o-rings? The factory kit (8993255) had all of them including the retaining ring. That ring looks like a press fit but hard to tell from mine.
