Those are not the ones I ended up using. These are the ones I used.

I don't have any photos. As mentioned before I have to use extra thick gaskets because my valve covers make contact with my intake manifold if I use gaskets that are too thin. They are aluminum valve covers. The surface that the gasket is mated to has an extra lip that runs along the edge of the gasket. They are not like the stamped steel valve covers that have a flat mating surface.
