What is this gasket for??? I`m swapping in my heads/cam package and I`ve got this gasket with the install package and I can`t figure out what it`s for! It`s an AC P/N #219-230 and a GM P/N #12558353. I don`t remember comming across one during tare down. It kind of looks like the Batman symbol (LOL) with 2 large 3/4" holes in the center and 2 5/16" holes on the out sides. Anyone know what this is?? 
Thanks.

Re: What is this gasket for??? THe Batman symbol thing does sound kinda like EGR but that is a 12553047 and only has one hole in the center. I'll be at work tomorrow evening. I'll check the computer and get back to you if no one has.

Re: What is this gasket for??? Thanks for the replys fellas. I`m just hoping it doesn`t have anything to do with the Cam/timing chain install...because I just put the timing cover back on!!! 
Anyone else have an idea??

Re: What is this gasket for??? This gasket definately would not fit the oil diverter. Could it be for the EGR on the top of the manifold just behind the throttle body on the `97-`00 cars??
