It seems I got the exact same reply from Elring as in that thread.

Pricing is quite unfortunate, but I may be left with no choice. Who knows maybe I'll find someone wanting to buy the others off of me!

If custom is the only way, I'll first see if I can find any shops in North America that could manufacture the gasket for less and report back.
