the first link + just the pan gasket...may be cheaper than the 2nd link as you won't need some of the gaskets/seals in the 2nd link
get the Fel Pro "printo" seal intake gaskets. (has blue sealer around ports)
I use Permatex Black "ultra" RTV

regular fel Pro intake gaskets are "OK", I just prefer the Printo seal ones
IIRC the hub bolt is a TTY so re-using them is not advises, although some do. They are cheap enough to buy. ARP makes them and theirs are not TTY and are re-useable
Also the WP drive seal is tricky to install without folding over the inner lip so some form of "tool" is strongly advised to use on install. You can buy them on ebay or make one from a Sharpie pen body. Several threads on that
