Sure there is. All head to manifolds on all cars(that i know of) have a gasket.

Gasket 078 129 589 x2 (if doing both sides)
The hardest part is getting to each of the nuts. You first need to get the heat shield's off and those nut/bolts tend to be rusted tight. The manifold nuts themselves should be copper and very soft. They will strip very easily and if they do it becomes really tough to get them off then. A good soaking overnight with PB Blaster is a good idea. Use either a 6 point socket or 6 point box wrench whwre necessary depending on clearance. A 12 point is just asking for them to strip.
The nut might or might not be copper. Some have a steel locking nut also. Kinda like most Audi's...depends. The copper nuts are also a locking thread, so in either case, they liklely won't want to come off easily. Don't be a bull, but take your time and make sure they are coming off properly before you dig a deep hole.
