Exhaust gasket question?

I have a Racing Beat road race header that I'm about to put on my '85 and I was wondering if the exhaust gasket for the header is the same as the gasket for the stock exhaust manifold? Because I was gonna order the gasket from Racing Beat but it's gonna cost me a ton just to have it shipped to Canada but I can just buy a stock exhaust manifold gasket here for nothing.

The engine to header. I wasn't sure if it mattered. I'm assuming it doesn't.

No, I meant I assumed the engine to header gasket didn't matter if I bought it from RB or just from Mazda.
