Hi mate, i got the same problem. went to my local dealer and got quoted about £8 for each rocker gasket plus £6 each for the ones round the spark plug holes (all prices + vat).
you probably wont get them much cheaper now that subaru have lowered most of there prices.
you can get a genuine oil filter for £4.50 plus vat, halfords own brand is about £7-£8.
