Farmall 656 head gasket

was assembeling engine yesterday & when I put head gasket on block I noticed the holes are not perfectly round (overlaping & not overlaping sleeve flanges). I then found old (blown) head gasket to find the same thing. They are from different manufacturers. I"m very nervous about installing this new one. What"s up?
 
Hmmm,

That doesn't sound right. Down on the left side of the motor near the oil filter base, there is a flat area with the engine model stamped.

I think ya gots the wrong gasket?

Thanks for the reply...So far every thing else in the kit has been right. I wonder if they maybe get distorted on the shelf? At any rate, Im on my way to the IH dealer with both old & new gaskets. Just another delay in bringing the ole" girl back to life, but I"m having fun anyway.

PS you spell your name rong ;)
 
Allan where you been man.. No Music from you lately... How is the health..? good to hear from you..
 
Returned from dealer/mechanic who says all is well. He suggested puting small bead of hi-temp silicone around push rod holes...supposedly helps keeep oil from weeping out. Has anyone else tried this?
