quick gasket question

I took off my atmospheric BOV so I could switch it to the recirculating mode for my appointment with EQ on the 16th. In the process, I somehow "lost" my BOV gasket so I made one from a piece of cardboard that I cut out. I absolutely cannot find it anywhere.....

Is that okay?....it's only temporary for now until my EQ appt.

My idle sometimes dips to as low as 500RPM, even before I switched it, so I think maybe I did something wrong...I hope not.


THanks!

When I took my intercooler off took my stock bpv off and it didn't even have a gasket from the factory. It's plastic-e. plastic to metal I guess didn't require one? Not sure though may be wrong maybe somebody else will chime in.

Wow, thanks for the replies everyone.

I'll see if I can get one from the dealership tomorrow. My main concern is that I didn't install the recirc right, or atleast I'm waiting for my appt so the guys will be able to correct it for me.
