Timing Cover Gasket Question
So I have the head off with the timing cover still in place, someone has been here before so I have no clear record of what is correct. In the gasket set I have(military)there is what appears to be a standard full timing cover gasket and a shorter, thicker card gasket that appears to be for the top of the timing cover. In gasket sets I see on line they picture both these gaskets in the kit. My engine did not have the card gasket between the end of the head and timing cover just the regular full gasket.
I have overlaid the two gaskets and you can see the card gasket does not line up on one side, also confirmed it does not match on the end of the head. It would be no problem to make it match if I had to.
So my question is do I just cut off the normal gasket and glue it to the timing cover or is that card gasket suppose to go between the head and timing cover ? The manual does not show that card gasket just the normal one.
Thanks
