Default Quick question about head gasket and over sized pistons

here it goes. my stock rings got shot over the weekend. Im putting in new over sized(81.25) itr pistons into my gsr block. my question is, do I need to use a aftermarket head gasket to match with the new bore size, or am I safe with using the stock oem?

Stock oem or felpro are fine. Honda sells oversized pistons and rings, yet only has 1 head gasket part number. Therefore oem and felpro are larger than 81mm bore to accomodate .25mm oversized piston bore as well.
