diagnosing a headgasket failure

[MyToy]

Hey Tim:

I am changing my head gasket and when I compare the new with the block the holes are different where the water jacket is. Can you take a look at these pics? They use holes in some areas and not triangles.

I made red circles around where there are holes on the gasket and then where they line up on the head. You can see that only 4 triangles are on the gasket compared to 7 on the block. The remaining are just holes.

Do you think this was done intentionally?
