    if the intake is closed or weld the cross over in the intake then thats all you have to do filling the head s is some work and you will not see much from the work.were you see any thing is keeping the heat out of the intake

    your gasket should cover it use a mr gasket or a stock gasket should as well that is not the port that part go s a round the port and is more like a shield keeping oil off the hot ex port will not hurt any thing it dead heads in to the head so no ex runs thru that part
