You have a common problem. I have 48 rubber gaskets I
ordered from a Baldwin dealer. I can't find the part
number at present but the Balwin filters come with
them, I just ordered them seperate as I had a large
supply of filters already. There may be other filter
brands that have the correct rubber gaskets. Don't
bother with WIX filters as they are the same as the
Napa filters (gold series). If you can't find any I
can mail you a couple, just let me know.

Here are some other filter numbers you may want/need
yet.

air
Napa 2837

secondary/final fuel filters
Napa 3512
you must also order gasket number 5070 as the filters
don't come with the right size

primary
Napa 3511
try it if you want, some people swear by this number
but it isn't a direct replacement and I couldn't find
a gasket that worked. I use NOS but they are
expensive and hard to find

Keep in mind these numbers will cross to other brands,
I just listed Napa numbers because it sounds like that
is where you shop. I have not heard of a Napa gasket
that works for the oil filters and I'd like to know if
you find one.

Also, the canister bolt calls for 60 ft. lbs. of
torque.

Good Luck

Marc
