Curious because it stands up rather than laying flat like a washer. The gasket that came with the alternator is too tight to lay flat (like a washer) on the mating faces so I dabbed it with super glue to get it to lay down…
Uhmm...

Superglue eats/degrades many plastics, oil based substances or causes brittleness. If you see any whiteness or similar discoloration you may as well start over with a new gasket.
