Default Redoing my head gasket HELP

Hey I am planning on replacing my headgasket and headstuds and maybe doing my water pump and timing belt replacement since im already taking off the head..So Can You Guys Please Help Me..(head is leaking alittle bit, trying to prevent this leak)

GSR Head
Ls B18b Bottemend


What kinda Headgasket should I get?? I heard oem headgasket is better then cosmetic. Is that tru?If so What kind of Gasket should I get Since my head is a GSR head with a B18b Bottom end...Gsr head gasket or Ls Gasket??

And for headstuds what kind should I get so that my head will stop leaking...

And for water pump and timing belt i have no idea on what to get that will work on my setup. (My belt on my motor right now is loose and when its warmed up it gets tight but still little lose) tried tightening is already but its already to the fullest..Scare that my timing belt might snap since its seems lose..unless its suppose to be like this..

Thanks

golden eagle headgasket. vtec water pump and gsr/itr belt.

you need to figure out why your head is 'leaking' or you'll just end up doing another one again.

For the golden eagle headgasket- should it be a gsr head gasket or a ls headgasket??

once i take off the head then ill see what is causing it to leak..cause it only leaks in the front of the motor..
