I can go to OE if it's really necessary but I know at least for the headgasket kit, Elring is the supplier to Mercedes so they probably also supply the crankcase gasket set. Goetze was the supplier for the 16v headsgaskets. I know the argument of OE vs OEM but does it really matter in this case? Granted I have not looked for long but I've yet to find a report of a failed Elring gasket, just lots of threads arguing about whether people should buy OE or not. I can return the head gasket set but I have to pay return shipping and a restocking fee to then pay twice as much for what's likely the exact same thing.
