broken EGR screws & gasket

Sometime back someone told me they could get me the GM part number to the gasket that goes under the solonoids on the EGR, mine has two of the three allen head screws broken off and it has caused an underhood exhaust leak. For the price of a new EGR I would like to try drilling these broken screws out and replacing them.
Does anyone know what gasket I am referring to?
My scanner does not work or I'd post a pic.

Eric

I should try selling them thru ebay, I can get plenty of gaskets from GM with no problem. Everyone on thirdgen gets free shipping.

You can try your luck at the junkyard. Last week i picked up a digital EGR valve for THREE DOLLARS off of a 90 Firebird. It should still be good....and if it isn't......who cares! It was only 3 bucks!
