AU MLS is available through Ford, its about 20-25 thou. Should set you back anywhere between $60 and $90 dollars.
Most aftermarket kits supply the standard s**t composite gasket, so get the gasket from Ford alone, and some aftermarket headbolts for $50 odd and you're done.

Slowly going up in price I see lol. RRP was $88 last time I got one, though I paid trade of $60 something on it.
