There is a paper gasket between the remote extension and the gearbox.

If you haven't already, then get hold of the gearshift bush kit
http://www.rimmerbros.co.uk/Item--i-519770

It contains the gasket but also all the bushes to make the shift nice and tight. Easy to do while you have it all apart and another job that you won't probably need to do ever again!
