Not exactly sure what you mean by "standard", but definately use only one set of gaskets.

You want the GM exhaust gaskets with the round ports. LG has the part number on their web site.

Use the GM steel gaskets. Do not use the black?/grey?, abestos looking gaskets that came with your headers from LG.
