type 4 with swing axle

hi -- just getting my manx style buggy together. Got the type 1 running and realized the tranny must have come from a mid engine as it has 4 reverse gears...
Figured I'd install my Raby type 4 and new tranny that have been on the shelf. Pulled type 1 stuff and proceeded to transfer axles and tubes -- realized I need more gaskets to properly shim tubes. I also noticed that I will need to get a different TOB as the new tranny has the cover over the input shaft and a different throw arm from the old tranny. What throw out bearing am I looking for? 72' and up or is it type 4 related?
I will need to order both the gaskets and release bearing -- where is a good place that has the different thickness gaskets?
Here is a pic of old bearing against new tranny
