Does anyone know the Honda part number of a gasket?

I need to purchase a new manifold gasket, but the Honda website doesn't list manifold gasket. Instead, they have:

Gasket, Cylinder,
Gasket, Cyl Head
Gasket, In Pipe

I'm wondering, how many holes in too many? I'd like to put a few more in if I could, but I'm not sure if the engine will ...

87 Honda Spree - Quits idling after a few seconds

I just bought a 1987 Honda Spree with about 2700 miles on it. The guy I bought it from claims he just cleaned the spark plug, carburetor and put in a new battery, but it refuses to idle. I can usually get it started electrically with some strategic throttling, but sometimes have to kick start it ...
