I believe it is 0.015 steel shim. Use a copper coat or aluminum paint for sealing.
You may want to double check the deck height with the piston at TDC. Typically the piston is 0.025 down in the hole and with the 0.015 you end up with a quench of 0.040 which is about right. I say typically because this varied a bit form the factory.
