Gearbox Sump Gasket Needed

Hi guys
 
Does anyone know where I can get a gearbox sump gasket for my 1996 2.3 Auto Scorp.  
 
The autobox is really sluggish in the cold and I figure and oil change would do it good but there is no drain plug on the sump pan so I need to take it off and replace the gasket.
 
Cheers

Anywhere other than Ford? Looking on the web there are loads of websites saying they are "Ford Parts" I don't know which to use

If you're going to take the sump off and change the oil you'd be well advised to replace the filter at the same time, which is a Ford only part, I'd get the gasket there too,

Ok Highlander - thanks for that - I know this may seem a stupid question but how do I go about contacting them?
 
Like I say, type in Ford Parts on google and hundreds of things come up

If you are changing the filter you will probably have to change the bolt thats secures it as well, new design filters need a longer (or maybe shorter  Roll Eyes) bolt
