The gasket includes a substantially planar horizontal top surface defining a body under the top surface; a substantially planar horizontal bottom surface substantially parallel to the top surface; a substantially planar vertical edge extending between the top surface and the bottom surface to define the height or thickness of the gasket; and a step that is integral with the body and has an “L” shape defined by a substantially planar vertical leg and a substantially planar horizontal leg, the step having a bottom and ending in a substantially planar vertical edge that extends between the bottom surface and the horizontal leg to define the height of the step, with the bottom of the step flush with the bottom surface of the gasket.
