Default intake/exhaust valve seal ?

I got my PRC dual spring kit and all my valve seals are the same color and marked EX on all of them. This is my first time to swap valve seals and I always thought the intake and exhaust seals where different.

I was wondering when doing my cam install... what's the difference? There appeared to be a very small height difference, but it was so minute, it could have been my imagination.

You can run them either way. Some people run a Viton on the exhaust and a poly on the intake some run just poly. Blue and black are Viton and brown are poly.

Out of curiosity...

What types of seals come with the PRC kit? I bought that spring kit with my cam package last Thursday.
