Heads are identical apart from the cams so you can use either head.

Isnt there an extra hole in the head-gasket? For the turbo oil feed?

Therefore an extra hole in block and head?

you didn't put that you were looking at using one as a direct replacement part, so sorry for the misunderstanding

No, oil feed is on the back of the block.

Turbo feed is fed straight out of the back of the block right by the oil pump
