VF1A t-case & R150F shifter gasket?

I've came to the conclusion my unusual tranny/t-case leak is coming from 1 of the 2 shifters. I cleaned it real good & am waiting for it to start leaking again(from the top & running down the pass. side of t-case/tranny attachment) to make sure which 1 it is but I'm almost positive it's the t-case. Anyways, I've searched my butt off & can't find part #'s for the gaskets that go under the mounting plate(s). Do they sell gaskets for these or do I just use Gray RTV? Thanks.

After looking @ the leak after driving awhile it's deffinatly coming from the top of the trans & not the t-case. It APPEARS to be coming from either the gasket where the shifter mounts(called the oil deflector gasket) or the big nut just under that(IDK what it's called or what it's for???). Anybody know what that bolt is or where to get an oil deflector gasket?

I just used a extremely thin layer of FIPG (or red RTV) between the oilo deflector and the trans and the OD and the shifter base.
Those bolts are shifter resistors(i think that is what they call them).
They have buttons under spring pressure in them to center the shifter and keep it from flopping from side to side...
It is a 27mm socket and they come out. Put a little RTV on the threads to seal them and put them back in at 27ft-lbs

Thanks for the input. I made sure the fluid level is correct so Idk why it's even leaking from that location. The vent appears to be functioning properly(it easily moves up & down).
