Masonry fireplace

We no longer use it with wood and have installed gas logs. The fire place never had a damper installed (?) and we have sealed the lower part of the chimney with sheet metal to hold the heat in; however; we still need to seal the edges between the masonry and the sheet metal (to wide for fire caulk). What kind of fireproof insulation can we purchase, if any?

one can buy in Uk at least a sort of fire proof rope/string. Woven white stuff maybe used for stove doors...
