You want all of your seals to compress equally. the old ones are compressed and tend to leak if you don't replace them at the same time.

$38 for a head gasket is a bargain. The dealer lists the head gasket for my 750 for about $130.
Speaking of rubber seals.... I went to the dealer for a tiny O-ring and the price was $11.
