Default ACDelco Brand: Reliable or Not?

I have an 09 528i that is getting the oil filter housing gasket seal replaced along with the upper coolant hose (due to swelling).

Before the accessory belt snaps and destroys the engine, I'm also having the belt replaced. Looking at brands, the ACDelco brand is on sale. Does anyone have any experiences with this brand and is it worth it?

Thanks in advance!

AC Delco is OEM for GM cars. I'd get the Continental belt, which is OEM for BMW.

Thanks. That's what I initially found as well. I decided to go with the Continental belt as it was only $15 more. In the long run, paying $15 more for better assurance is worth it to me.
