Mine did not have one either. So presumably they don't need one.

It seems incroyable but Citroen never fitted one. You just seal it with silicone which seems to do the job well.
The Joy of BX with just one Citroën BX to my name now. Will I sing Bye Bye to my GTI or will it be Till death us do part.

as a temp measure i made a couple from gasket paper with a smidge of silicone, i should just leave it as is then. misleading tho as they are listed on the bay and elsewhere, and im sure a contributary air leak was happening at this joint as the idle settled a little more after fitting a gasket and sealer.
