I don't understand any of those names really, and it turns out a few gaskets from the one I ordered don't fit

Use the OEM part no. at the r/h side of the list.
A dash requires inserting twice in those numbers though e.g.

1WG-?????-??

Then google the number.....

Which of your gaskets were incorrect ?

Chain tensioner, cam shaft cover (was just a bit longer in one spot but using gasket sealer worked I think so far)

Those are what I know so far, I'll let you know if there's any more

Yeh, as Evilchicken stated earlier......the cam cover gasket failed.

The pic you put up of it was far from inspiring also

Yeah the OEM one had no rubber piece in the center of 2 sides which I had to cut away for the cam guide.

My cam gasket doesnt fit perfectly either, not sure if it leaks yet, where did you get the OE gasket?

E-bay ... I found one for £6.50 but had to wait a while.
This should fit

I ordered the head gasket and cylinder gasket separately because I read they were different than the originals. The ones that came in this kit looked identical in material and shape to the OEM gaskets I purchased. Just in case anybody was wondering.
