For rocker cover gasket any way ford genuine only Is all I could find my self, the rest of the engine is the same as the intec engine.

My local Ford spares wanted $72 and said they have only ever sold 2 according to his records,he recons they NEVER leak,So I reused my original one with some sealant to be sure.
