Gaskets (iX)

[z122643]

So I'm rebuilding my iX engine and wanted to know about the quality of aftermarket gaskets.

Also after taking the pan off I noticed that it did not have a gasket from the factory. I know that iX's did not have pan gaskets. My question is, it seems that the regular M20 pan gasket should fit. Will it?

dont use victor reinz head gaskets. go OEM.
dont use regular m20 oil pan gasket. do a search.

use sealant, not an oil pan gasket.
