exhaust leak question

I have a nasty exhaust leak at the header to downpipe connection. I have badmab headers and a 3 inch downpipe. I used the gasket zzperformance sent me and its leaking. I'm assuming I can't use OEM because of the three inch collector. Does anyone know where I can get the three bolt gasket from?
