Was that year using a vacuum operated petcock ? Pentagon shaped diaphragm ? If so, it might be the same as used on the Kawasaki '69 - '72 H1 - the four hole gasket is 92065-055.

If at first you don't succeed, just get a bigger hammer !

you could buy a tank with a petcock on it on ebay for under $100 but postage might cost,or else buy the tank and get the owner to send the petcock only and have him keep the rest.
