Stinger header

Does anybody have any experience with the stinger center mount headers? I can't find a picture of the  to see if it is a D shape  like the ebay ones (Which from all other angles besides the angle that shows the , look like the stinger headers) or an oval  that perfectly matches up to the head.
Here is a D shape one that I see alot. http://www.xs-power.com/ford-turbo-manifolds-2.htm

I had one along time ago.  I dont recall it looking like a D shape like that, but as I said it was long ago and the design may have changed.

I'm confused...

when I tore my 2.3 out of my TC, there was a gasket between the manifold and the head...
