Yep. Call them and chew their butts out. Really though, stock gaskets are crap, so if I were you I would order some Felpro gaskets.

Not necessarily...
My Edelbrock didn't come with gaskets.

my edelbrock didn't come with gaskets. I do like Fel-pro gaskets. They're good quality.

If you’re running a Cleveland you should get the Fel-Pro valley pan gasket set. You probably know that. I had heat problems with mine and someone form the Cleveland forum turned me on to it. This is my first Cleveland and boy do I love that motor. They are beasts.

None of my aftermarket intakes have come with gaskets. Make sure you don't forget the valley pan on the Cleveland...that's a big oops.
