Orientation of head to exhaust manifold gaskets

Just purchased 2 exhaust manifold to head gaskets to install new headers.

These are p/n A0411A04A and superced 44616AA290.

The issue is that unlike the old gaskets these new ones have a 1mm raised lip on the two ports of each gasket and they’re only on ONE side of the gasket.

Wondering if anyone knows which way the gaskets are meant to be orientated.

Does it actually matter? Would seem to if they’ve gone to the effort..
