Need someone to look at this kit/gaskets for me pls...super confusing.

The cometic kit label says

. Gaskets are MLS not EST as noted on box. Here are pics of the gaskets with the old ones for comparison. Differences are noted. I realize all gaskets are not exact but to be sure since the box has wrong fitment years.

Differences in gaskrt shape are marked with small copper washers

No difference on head gasket

Another confusing bit is the manual diagram vs my actual head. Breather channel on front head is lower right. In manual it is shown in upper.

Whatname I missing here. I AM Working on my front head.

OK, I am confused too, you have a 2006 Low Rider and the top end kit say 99 - 02. Why would that be a match??

It isnt a match but it is what they sent me. Multiple websites have this kit as fitment for 06 fxdli. I just wanted some input before I sent the kit back. I'm asking because the gaskets in the kit all look to match up sitting on the head, rocker box, pushrod etc...
