Believe it or not autozone sells the fel pro seals which are the same as oem I just installed some on a 2005 5.3 and they were identical to the factory ones. Only thing is they come as a set so you get both intake and exhaust or you can buy the exhaust ones individually which costs the same as the set

Ask for valve seals for an 02 Camaro Z28. The Felpro kit that matches that part # has the seal / seat made into one housing. Those are the ones I always use. Advance Auto parts stocks them.
