Default AC refrigerant hose burst and parts replacement

The AC refrigerant hose burst from rubbing on adjacent hose metal end, wearing a hole through the hose. I ordered the new hose and am looking to replace the drier also. I think the clutch/compressor is still good even though I lost all the Freon and maybe most of the compressor oil. For the drier, there seems to be a large range in price between Mopar and GPD (~$60 vs $15). They are both listed as accumulator/receiver drier. I am not sure why the cost difference is so much, other Mopar parts are not that much higher as this. Am I safe with going with the GPD brand? Has anyone replaced any of these parts before and have any tips?
