There is a retangular gasket between the exhaust manifold and the turbo, the four bolts between the gasket and turbo sandwich it in. The good original gasket is the less than credit car thin solid copper one. That is the one to use. eEuroparts shipped a waffle one last time, I sent it back. Soak the bolts in CLR or Lime away for several hours to remove the rust and make it easier to put that back together, rinse with clean water and wire brush (or use a drill with wire wheel) to finish. Sometimes it's easier to get access to all of the bolts if the distributor is out. The usual leak is right at this point, either the bolt backed out or never was tighten enough in the first place. put some copper antisieze on the bolts to ease in getting them tight.
No gasket at the junction of the 90 degree elbow at the turbo, it's a flush fit.
No gasket at the downpipe to the output side of that same 90 degree elbow, it has a round or taper to it that fits the flare in the downpipe.
Don't remember if the O2 sensor has a gasket, think if so it's part of the O2 unit itself.
