I have just had a close look at the bits.

The (BMW) master cylinder has provison for an O ring - this should seal nicely against the Marlin supplied adapter plate.

The Metro servo has no provision for anything (no surprise there then). The Marlin adapter plate rocks very slightly when offered up and so it will definitly need some sort of gasket.

I guess all the instant gasket gloop you can buy will fail as the air from the manifold is laden with fuel which is an excellent solvent. So what it needs is some form of solid gasket - The sort of material used for inlet manifold gaskets would be best - anyone any idea where to get a sheet of that sort of material from?
