I was able to get some last year from my local Ford Industrial Power dealer, but the parts guy said he had had a tough time finding them and that the supply is drying up.
As a temporary substitute while he was looking for them, I used some I made myself out of copper sheet -- this seemed to work really well, and I'll probably go back to it when I'm down to my last Ford gasket (will save the last one for a pattern.) You can get small copper sheets at most hardware stores, and it's easy to cut with tin snips. For the big hole in the middle, you can either use a hole saw, or fold the sheet over, cut out the hole with your tin snips, then unfold the sheet and hammer it flat.
The copper seals well, but you can use a little 'Victor Muffler Mender' on each side as a sealant if you're worried about gaps.
