460 intake question

First of all im a Chevy guy, and ive honestly never really messed with anything this stock before. MY brother in law bought a 78 Challenger with a bone stock 460 even still has the iron intake and points.

I Rebuilt my brother in laws carb. And its a good thing i did. Jetting was way off, and had dirt in it (80 primary 68 secondary)


Put it back on and it runs okay but has a massive vacuum leak from this super thick gasket on the manifold that i had to re-use. I tried using just a normal base gasket but it wasnt enough for the fuel line to clear the intake


Its one of these



a
Can i just replace it with a 1" spacer to get the clearance i need? The intake is the stock ford one like this one





To be honest, even with the thick gasket, the fuel line still hits the runner and is a pain in the ass. I think a spacer would work better if i can use one on this intake?
