upper intake manifold gasket

I am planning to remove the intake manifold to get to my rear fuel injectors. If I remove it, do I have to replace the gasket? I found one on the Napaonline and wanted to know if im better off going with an oem one.

Defintely replace it...better to be safe than have a vacuum leak. I would stay with OEM personally.

Have fun removing the boolt at the rear left of the firewall. You also might want to get an EGR gasket as you may need a new one. It is a metal crush gasket whih if not replaced will create an improper seal and lead to an exhaust leak.
