Are the gaskets on top of the carbs and under the air cleaner, cork or paper? 1967, tri carbs.

I'm almost certain they are cork. But the gaskets between the carb baseplates and the intake manifold were initially thicker (not cork); they issued a tech service bulletin to reduce thickness due to baseplate warpage upon tightening.
