Default Can I reuse my stock gasket between the Header and the mainfold?

I am currently installing a new header onto my car. Is it ok if I reuse my old gasket that is between the mainfold and the stock header? Do I have to replace it with a new one to prevent leaks?

Yea, but if there is no difference why buy one. How much of a difference is it between a used and a new one. I don't want a leak.

The one he is selling is used...

For that you might as well reuse your sock one...
