garrett sells them or go on ebay and just get a whole rebuild kit.
spare parts come in handy.

Older garrett turbos used a carbon (flat) seal, but you could run nothing and be okay w/o a measurable boost leak. As long as the o-ring doesn't afect the height of the cover to the backplate, silicone actually will work for a temp fix. The o-ring just makes it less time consuming to clock it or remove the cover. RTV and carbon seals always have to be scraped off & replaced.
