Corvair valve cover gaskets?

Really? I ordered valve cover gaskets from Advance Auto Parts, and they sent me two sets of gaskets for the Chevy Corvair.

There's no way these fit, right? I mean, they're nowhere near wide enough. They also only have four bolt holes per gasket.

Am I wrong? I just want to make sure before I send them back.

Just fill the gaps with sealant. What's the worst that could happen?

Apply JB Weld liberally, and they will work just fine.
