Head gasket set and bolts, recommendation pls

Well I took my svx on a little jaunt across europe from the uk and found it was drinking coolant. The temp gauge starts to climb when it is low on coolant and sitting in traffic but otherwise doesn't overheat.

So i did a sniff test and it turned yellow pretty quickly once the engine had warmed up.

This all means i'm going to have to yank the motor and do the head gaskets.

Can you recommend head gasket brand and top end gasket set along with head bolts???

I assume there are better options than genuine subaru. I was even considering cometic head gaskets or is it not worth the extra cash?

Thanks in advance for the advice
Jan
