I got all the same colors too. My guess is that rather than making one for the intake and another for the exhaust, they just make them all able to withstand the exhaust side temps, so it shouldn't matter which side they go on.

I got the same thing, freaked out and bought the gm seals with the different colors, lol. Was told later it doesn't matter. Most vendors will send you all the same seals.
