If you are intending to use that particular black spacer then I suggest you put a new gasket on top of it also as it may not seal very well with out it.

The gap will be so small that it will make no difference to the running of the engine. I have used open spacers before now that have been 10mm thick and you can only just tell that the throttle response is not quite as good at around 1200 RPM.
