I would just go to Nissan for the gaskets, there nice and cheap and more then enough capable of doing the job...

As above, Ive just done this job and bought all the gaskets from Nissan (including the multilayer manifold gasket) they were readily available and not expensive.
Hose solutions are good for braided hoses, got them on mine

I just did them up tight, you should replace the lock tabs too. You may not be able to get a torque wrench on them anyway iirc its an open ended spanner job
