Exhaust port toungues on the gasket between header and head. Rule did not say you couldn't But did not say you could at that time.

i think the reason for being tossed was that the pieces where not gaskets but where what looked like port plates with ears on them at the top of the port must have been a rule it was not desputed by edwards .we all have our moments i had mind ****

It was another header flange plate with that piece welded to it that raised the port. They usually just dropped that as they pulled the header back during tear down.
