Any decent brand of exhaust gaskets should work well. Don't get the cheapest ones, but there's no need to spend $$$ for them, either. Just make sure the inside of the gasket fits so that it is flush with the ID of the pipe.

I'm not a big fan of Chuck33079's "RTV only" method but have used it in "emergency" situations. A little RTV will help hold the gasket in place during installation.
