Default stupid header gasket question

ok so i picked up a set of percys seal for good header gaskets and they have two layers? This is nothing like the other gaskets that I've seen before. To me it looks like two of them are stuck together which makes it look like a set of four. But then again that would be a really thin gasket if they came apart. They seem like they don't want to come apart and I'm dumb but I'm not stupid lol, I'm not going to try to force something apart so i came here and posted

Does this look familiar to anyone? Anyone run the percys?

each gasket has two layers that are stamped together. dont pull them apart. they are made to crush when you tighten the header bolts to provide a good seal.
