The thing is that they came with head gasket set. I was out checking earlier on today, and layer the head gasket down a few times, and it seems right to me. This thing can't possibly go the other way, as the flat side (with no writing) always goes on the engine side. If my mind serves me right, I think I had a similar issue with my Camaro. I'll probably just end up installing them that way since they look like the Victor gaskets in the image above, when installed for fitting purposes.
