valve cover gaskets

I put my covers on tonight with the gaskets that were in the overhaul kit. These gaskets are a hard fiber type. I have always used cork gaskets on my cars in the past. What are the thoughts for the best sealing. Not looking to have any oil leaks once this thing is started.
Heres a pic of the covers. They are aftermarket with a flat bottom base.
