That model does use a head gasket (as do all bikes).
No you cannot make one out of gasket paper.
Buy one from a Yamaha dealer - $3

typically, a head gasket is metalized ... not sure a paper type gasket would hold up to the pressure.
per this link there should be a gasket between the cylinder and the head.
