just about fell off my chair called the Ford Stealership to get a new GPR and was told $160 so i looked around found the international part number and called then. Parts guy comes back and says $40 for the same part

Yep.........about a year ago I was at the dealer getting the CPS recall done, so I went to Parts to get a couple oil drain plug gaskets. The guy comes back and says......"they are $9.80". I told him I didn't need a dozen of them, just one or two. He says........"no, these are $9.80 each".

Went to Napa and got the exact same copper gaskets for $.68/each.

Yep, there's an International dealer not too far from my work so I get my parts there, saved a crap load when I needed the GPR and GP's, they also saved me money by not selling me the valve cover gaskets, they said, unless you tear it, they will work just fine, I didn't and they did.
