Can yield acceptable paper for making your own gaskets. Push hard on the cardboard over the housing without moving it and it leaves dents where bolt holes go, then trim out with X-Acto knife. Or you can buy sheets of gasket paper at hardware and auto parts stores. Or there are lots of "gasket replacement" sealers out there, silicone included.
But there's another chance: Did you replace the oil filter? If so, make sure the gasket from the old filter didn't stay stuck to the housing. If so, it's there, unsupported by the groove in the filter can, and all the tightening in the world won't help, it will move sideways and let oil gush out.
