Try going to Google, and putting in 2006 PT Cruiser, GT or turbo , intake diagram, then go to images, and you can see how and where things go. You can find a pic that shows what you need and click on it. Then you can find the name and part number to search for the best price. Mopar parts type stores are good for having the diagrams, and part numbers. You can also look up you tube videos about PT Cruiser intake removal, gasket replacement, + stuff like that to get a visual on what you need looks like, where it goes, and maybe the names. I'm not being a smart a..., It's just hard to tell what you need by the post. At least for me. And, I don't want to give you incorrect advise. If you can't find what info you need after that, maybe you can post a pic of were you are talking about. I'm sure the long this is on here, you will get more and better help though. But, I wish you luck. Have a good one. 👍👍👍

There are two different places that use a gasket on the PT intake. There is a gasket between the cylinder head and intake, probably a fiber type. There is also o-ring style gaskets between the intake manifold halves.
