Default What gasket or Oring do I need for the Thermostat on an 02 Stratus R/T?

Going to replace the Thermostat on my 02 R/T 3.0L. The guy at the parts store said I needed 2 paper type gaskets. Is that right? Don't I need a rubber O ring instead? Cant find much info about it online.

Looks like theres an O-ring for the thermostat seal, and a paper gasket for the thermostat housing where it meets the head. If you go to rockauto.com and look up 02 Mitsubishi Eclipse, 3.0, cooling system, thermostat/ thermostat housing. It gives you all the dimensions of the seal.
