Default Latest source for 1jz valve cover gaskets?

I have been searching for 3 days now and all sort of lead to dead ends or unconfirmed theroys?
I read thet 2jz and 7m gaskets work with modifications but I would really like some that fit properly the 1st time

Any sources that carry them? Drift motion did not have anything either, I am just trying to fresh up a jdm motor that I am going to be installing in the near future.

Mk3 supra and 88-92 Cressida. Both had 7m, turbo or non turbo doesn't matter since they were all pretty much the same pile of ****. Use some sealant in the front between the head and the gasket in the corners where the arch meets the flat surface. Pop the little half moon things off the back of the head and do fresh sealant there too.
