The one off my engine looks closer to a head gasket for a diesel which doesn't make much sense - a lot of the water jacket holes are blocked as a result.
See attached photos of my engine with the existing head gasket on and removed. Can anyone help me work out which head gasket is right?

Engine block and cylinder head without gasket.
