Default Invidia Midpipe question!

My question is if an OEM flange gasket will fit between my Invidia midpipe and oem header!?

Recently my dash light came on so than I took it to the shop and they told me my flange gasket connecting the Invidia midpipe and the header are leaking. I just got the midpipe install from this shop and they ask me to get a set of them gasket and come back cause they don't have one that is big enough. I'm assuming the invidia pipe is larger!?
Any suggestions?

The oem gasket should fit since the flanges still have to seat. I reused my gaskets when I installed HKS mid pipes on my F.

Not sure how many kms you have on your ride but the gasket sounds like it's just worn and deteriorated.

They're crush gaskets I believe and should be replaced. When I went to install my mid pipe, I was given the wrong size gaskets and had to reuse the originals, but yeah, they leaked.

I re-used my factory gaskets without an issue, been close to two years ago now.
