if i had the choice i would rather not,replace cam belt, head gasket, head skim, ancillary gaskets, etc

im sure many peeps use the cometic without issue, but i chose not to use one because of the stories i heard
Ive had a cometic gasket and it weeped oil from the back of the engine, stuck a wrc one on, straight swap and its been fine ever since, i was told at the time by the guy that built my engine that the cometic ones leaked on occasion ????? but this was when the cometic gaskets had just become popular, they are better now i beleive, but i would stick with wrc
