Cometic head gasket coolant passage???

So I'm putting my motor together and noticed that the front and rear top coolant passages on the block don't match up to well with the gasket passages. Here is a picture to clarify.

Are these the wrong gaskets or something. I told them LT1 when I ordered. Here are the numbers off the packaging. C5245-027, H1074, 235593.

Turns out I was sent SBC gaskets. FBO is taking care of me though and exchanging them for LT1 gaskets.

I was gonna say, those don't look like the correct gaskets.
