I got a genuine filter

and this gasket http://www.rmeuropean.com/Part-Numbe..._2FDB44E4.aspx
Figured OEM would be best since cost is so close

Yeah, I'd go oem.
Especially something that only gets done so infrequently.
But anything that RM carries is usually good stuff.
Maybe call and ask them.
For certain MB doesn't actually make the filters.

Good idea to call them or skype them (yes they have a skype account) They gave me some nice insight to a few brands they carry when the OEM and OES part was out of stock.
To be honest they are all probably fine but as C230 said you don't change the filter often and heck what is another $20 for peace of mind knowing you won't have a filter issue.
