You should be able to buy a gasket/seal set for your carb... make sure all mating surfaces are clean before putting it back together and everything seats nicely, you'll get horrendous air leaks (revving uncontrollably) otherwise. A smear of vaseline before fitting the paper gaskets helps.

The filter can be cleaned and you would generally reuse the float and needle unless you know the carb is flooding. Take your time and make sure everything is completely clean before reassembling. Use a small paintbrush to remove cruddy buildups in the float bowl etc. Dip the brush in an eggcup of clean fuel or carb cleaner. I like to put carbs together on a piece of clean cardboard like the inside of a cereal box.
