Absolutely buy a real seal. National (Federal Mogul) or CR (SKF). O'Reilly's "house" brand is National in an O'Reilly box. I prefer Nationals as they usually have a heavier shell than most others.

crown and omix-ada are likely one and the same and not something that is really worth your time installing.
