Jon:
The leaky gaskets were a special thick laminated part designed to compensate for "gaposis"when milled heads and intake don't match up. I replaced them with felpro 1246S-3's, which are for a 428FE (bigger ports) with a steel center so they don't distort, plus custom shims to close the head to intake gap. Intake runners are now free of any oil.
