From the size it sounds like those gaskets are for the dizzy. Most distributors fit through the intake manifold but so they probably throw them in with all intake gasket sets.

I tossed the box already but think it covered a few engines.
I have been asking questions on a page for 66/67 Chargers. A guy there is saying I will have carb icing problems by having the heat holes blocked. My choke is not set up right so doesn't work correctly. When I start the car I have to hold the pedal down a little till it starts to warm up.

I have no choke and no heat on the intake and it starts fine every day, even in the colder months. Sounds like you just need to tune the carb and it won't be a problem.

I'll have to see how it runs and if there's and issue find out how to sort the carb.
Thanks for the replies

I gave the car a try today, seemed to run good. All nice and dry in the valley pan area, but I think I'm still leaking! I tried to get a couple of photos of around the rear main seal, first one is of between engine and flywheel, it looks to be dry there
2nd is of the other side of flywheel, it does seem wet there. I have tried to wipe everything down as much as I can while I have the flywheel cover off. Took it for a good run and it was dripping off the cover, wiped it again, then a run and was dripping so I'm thinking its a leak rather than oil still working its way off.

Must be the front seal of the gearbox then. Does the oil smell like gear oil? It's a pretty easy job but the box has to be removed.

That is what is throwing me, from memory gearbox oil smells worse than cat Bananarama!! I recently had a sinus op so my smeller is a bit off, but I'm not getting that gearbox oil stench.
