Default Part# for Cometic .040 MLS gasket?

Does anyone have the part # for the .040 Cometic head gasket. I checked on the Cometic website and it mentions Darton sleeves beside the part#. Is that the gasket even for a stock LS6?

Thanks!

Who's part number is this? (H1294040S) I found it on AFR's web site.

Cometic's number is 5475-040
