Payen Byrns and Blackford use to make them for us when we ran a rather 'large' SP370 motor I think they were taken over by Monotorque though. Could give the a go.

Probably stating the obvious but there are several for sale on ebay at the moment.
Here's a couple;

Anyone with an original gasket can get replicas made by these guys:

I had two custom thicknesses made up for my RM250 and they were perfect. $50 each.
