Throttle body gasket pn#

So I am looking to remove the tb and clean it in hopes of helping my low startup idle when engine is warm. Correct me if I am wrong, but this *should* help, right?

If so, then what gasket do I need? I keep finding the o-ring AND the square shaped flat one in my searches. Felpro 61530 and 61531. Will I need both or just one? I have to buy them in advance of my little project. I am confused. It seems like maybe the connection uses 2 gaskets?????

Thanks, guys.

One gasket. Depends if you have 3.0 or 3.5. 161752Y001 if for the former and 16175AR000 is for the latter.
