Start by looking at the parts fiches from any of the Honda parts vendors.. here is one of several, and then select the sub assembly you are interested in:

For example, to see the parts in the driven face, look at:

and the transmission at:

The parts fiche lists the generic number for that bearing as a 6202 --> 15x35x11

Greetings:

Yes the gasket thickness is an Engineered part of the assembly, and determines the end play in the shafts. Too thin and it binds on the ends. You can buy gasket material at most autoparts stores, often in different thicknesses. Alternatively, see if you can source the Honda item from a dealer or aftermarket shop. Search by part number and hope you get lucky.

Just be sure you got the bearing perfectly pressed. It's easy to miss. Freeze bearing and heat the case if in doubt.
