need some info on this header

I recently acquired this header for my 05 xb.
first, anybody know the brand?
also, I'm wondering how a donut gasket is going to fit.

And recommendations?

Looks like your standard 4-1 header... no name brand.

As far as the donut gasket, I'm not sure. The way that seats against the pipe looks like it would just scream exhaust leak.

Who cares what it looks like, you can't see the header anyway.

And if the end isn't threaded, you'll need new bolts, too.
