That's all that is available in my area, we used to have a different company around here called Detroit Gasket. I used them a few times and they worked ok...

We use rope packing at work for pump stuffing boxes. If you get stuck, PM me and I can get most any width.

I could get the pan off with the motor in the car but they had told me to put RTV on the back of the seal so I dont think I'll be able to roll it out from under the crank. I might have to pull the crank back out but Im hoping that's not the case. Still, it might be worth a shot to just pull the pan and try it. Pan has to come off either way.
