The 08+ diff cover is the cheapest.

A stamped steel replacement gasket is $25.79 at Rockauto.com. Yes. it will eventually rust out again, but it is very inexpensive.

The factory Ford '08 aluminum finned cover from Tousley ford Parts Depot is listed for $40.43 (plus shipping). Thats where I got mine from and I picked up the stainless allen head bolts and washers from the corner hardware store for a couple of bucks extra. Looks snazzy........
