Default Exhaust gasket for turbo manifold

Doing work to the truck and I replaced my log manifold gasket and used a new gm gasket, it had a felpro gasket before and I compared the two and it looked like the felpro was thicker then the oem gasket. I think I may have a leak at the manifold and wondering if I should try a new felpro since it looks thicker. Any input on whether to use a fel pro or another gasket

i like the mls stock ones. i put a little ultra copper on both sides of gasket, and both head and header and tighten down. has worked great for me.

I'm not for certain my header gasket is leaking with the new mls stock gasket but I did notice the felpro is thicker. I do have a leak but not sure where yet. Lol

I used GM LS3 gakets as I had them laying around and I haven't had any issues.

Stock re-used MLS gaskets with a heavy coat of copper spray applied tacky and no issues here.
