This part is an OEM from the Briggs & Stratton manufacturer. The carburetor body gasket is made for use with many small engines. The cardboard composite item is fitted onto the carburetor, providing protection from friction and leakage. The gasket is sold individually. However, it is also included with the carburetor assembly (297684). A screwdriver, pair of pliers and a nutdriver are often helpful with the removal and installation.

Carb gasket
Pulled my old chipper/scheduler out after 10years of storage. Purchased an air cleaner & carb parts just in case I had to rebuild. But the darn thing fired right up, but I will keep carb parts just in case. Give a star to non-ethanol fuel!!
