Dumb question, but is this part reusable? Don’t really want to wait one week for the part to arrive if I order it

I wouldn’t reuse any gasket that was removed off of the engine unless it’s a brand new part or replaced very very recently. A lot of times these gaskets will develop small cracks or tears during removal and reinstallation. Not worth the hassle later on in my opinion
