Default Rocker Cover Gaskets

I need to replace the drivers side rocker cover gasket as it is leaking quite badly, however, subaru have quoted me £190 for just the gasket. Maybe I am wrong but this seems an extortionate amount for what it is. The car is a classic 2000 turbo UK Spec. Can anyone recommend a better place to get it from?

Import car parts, camskill. Certainly nowhere near that expensive. More like the £20 for the gasket plus you'll need the gaskets for the spark plug and a seal for each of the bolts holding it together, unless these come in a kit but have only seen them sold seperately
