Silly question but... is there a gasket between the oil pump and the rear main cap?

I'll have to cut one out of thin gasket material then. Thanks.

These were not used from factory, aftermarket pumps and non Mopar gasket sets come with them. These are 2 machined surfaces you shouldn't need a gasket.

I didn't use one on the last build. Oil pressure was fine so I assume no leakage. I've got the oil pump off again so I thought I'd check it out. Adding a gasket can't hurt.
