Use a standard one. Ring Autovaux, they can supply an OE one for good money.

You only need to use a standard one unless you have raised the compression ratio of it...

Does it have standard pistons? If so the compression ratio is standard.

If it has different pistons you will have to see what's written on them and then go from there...

Though most people will keep the standard compression ratio and just use oversize pistons. Raising the compression ratio is really in the race spec area of things.
