Try your local auto parts store, all the ones around me had them for about $20. The dealer was like $34

That one in the link your provided will work fine too

and its called an exhaust manifold gasket, a head gasket is a different thing

I would try and reuse your stock one. If it leaks, then get a new one. If it doesn't leak keep it
