They don't sell the gaskets individually but they come in a kit, part number 271815.

List price is around $4.50 for the set.

Are these ever known to leak? I assume its possible, especially from excess block pressure/overboosting.

Not sure what they are called. No need for a write up. Just pull the bolts, clean off the old gasket, install the new and close it up. Don't need a write up for the oil cap seal either.
