i dunno if they are the same gasket or not, but i got my headgasket from the local mitsu dealer for 50 and the arp stud kit for 90 or so from slowboy

Head gasket is the same through all 4G63 runs.

alright well what brand should i get

Clean off your block and get a stock mitsubishi headgasket. Unless you warped the head/blew the headgasket/etc, use a stocker. 4 layer meal HKS/Mitsu brands aren't needed, because your geometry should still be good.

Id go for a stock gasket with ARP studs. This setup has gone 10s and is fine. Another issue with metal gaskets is sealing issues and pushing coolant.

Go with a cometic head gasket. They are to be of the same quality of HSK but half the price.
