The best advice for actually replacing it would be clean it, clean it, clean it and then clean it again. Wipe all the surfaces with paint thinner to remove all traces of oil then apply a thin layer of RTV to both sides of the gasket. A thick bead means stuck forever, a thin bead only means a good seal.
