The older alias for this part is E9972, which is the legacy letter-prefix form you'll find in earlier parts books before the numeric system took over.
Our catalog record only ties this one to a single year of appearances, so if you're matching it to a specific engine, check the gasket against the head and barrel you've got on the bench before you order, and give us a call if anything looks off.
