i have a CB500E motor and it appears that honda doesnt have the cylinder base gasket that i need do any of u have any ideas on how i can fix that or get one. and is it possible to use that gasket from a 550e motor

Go into the FAQ section and there is a topic on places to order parts. I would bet that one of those stores has your gasket.

i looked there and theres really no help that i can see

If you are in the US or if you don't mind dealing with a US supplier, try www.westernhillshonda.net, call them at 513-662-7759, ask for the "Vintage Parts" desk.

There is probably something there, some of the sites are slow to look through. Though I would think the 550 gasket would work but I dont know.

550 gaskets would probably work; go to csml and cross check gasket numbers. also there's cometic, but you'll pay for  the custom work.
