Going to tackle o ring behind timing cover. What brand would you suggest?

Hey guys. I've made several posts before for some help trying to identify where my oil leak has been coming from. I've done both valve covers and both upper and lower pan. After reading around and taking advice from people on this forum, I am convinced that it is coming from the o-ring behind the timing cover. I plan on purchasing a kit today and was wondering if it matters where I buy it from. Any tips for this job?

Thanks

What do you guys think about this?

I agree. If you are going to do all that work for an O-ring...go OEM. I have never performed such a job but I would recommend looking at what other things you should replace while you have it apart, that may have not been serviced/replaced in a while. Just a suggestion.
