Get the OEM, and get the proper O2 sensor so you don't throw a CEL which will keep you out of lean burn.
I am having a hard time finding a used factory manifold. All of the local junk yards don't have any and all the ones on ebay look like there from an EX.

What do you think about this one? Exhaust Manifold with Integrated Catalytic Converter Front Fits 96 00 Civic 1 6L | eBay

That one has the spots for both O2 sensors and looks more factory. it says refurb.
