NGK iridiums are basically the same thing as the OEM [Denso]. Might even be cheaper.
You don't need to change them at 50K [unless there's a specific problem], they should last 100K or more.

stock plugs do last 100k but it doesnt hurt to change them earlier.

It doesn't come with one from the factory but there is a spot for one behind the glove box. People cut a house filter to size and put it in there.
