[ST] Spacer help and gasket?

[triumph1 <triumph1@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I got the motor out of my RS yesterday and near the end of dropping the 
motor I found a thick spacer laying under the bike and don't know where 
it came from.  I think it is from the left side rear lower mount behind 
the counter shaft sprocket.  Can anyone verify this information for me? 
  Today will be spent cleaning 76,000 miles of oil and dirt build up on 
the bike where I couldn't see before.  Then another half day to put the 
new motor in and a trip to a dealer for a daytona tune and I should be 
good to go.  Another question....I need to make a gasket for the 
throttle bodies and it looks as though the original one was very thin 
and had some sort of clear coating on it?  some sort of sealer, but have 
never seen clear before.  Anyone ever made a gasket for the throttle 
bodies.  I don't want to pay Triumph prices for a gasket and would 
rather pay a couple bucks and make my own.  Any and all advice 
appreciated.  I am changing the rear shock out for a low mile original 
and have several other low mile part to do while I am at this.  All of 
the powder coated [arts are flaking, so I will either try and strip them 
and polish the aluminum or get them repainted.  Should be like having a 
new old bike in a week.

Thanks,

Tim
