Not sure from your thread if you already have these, but on the inlet side of things go COMETIC, they're re-useable, also for water pump, stat housing cometic again(re useable).
For the seals on cams, aux shaft, front crank use VITON, well worth the extra money, for this proper high temp industrial seal, the rear crank seal can also be got in VITON but seriously expensive this one, the std seals are ok here.
Can also get cometic r/c gasket, but check fit before using as often need just a tiny amount trimmed off the end tags where it sits under the half moon seals at the cam bearing retainers, you can also get a cometic one for the CTS housing.

these ones are all gen ford from matt lewis, i figured that if the original ford ones have held out for 100 thou miles then these will be fine for the next few years.
as you say though next time ill probably go cometic as the engine will probably be stripped and rebuilt more regularly when my workshop is built
