CMi header gaskets

I'm getting ready to install a set of CMI's on my 502, and I just noticed that the ports on the CMI's are round and by 502 heads have square ports!?!?!?!

What header gaskets should I run for the best seal (round or square), and for that matter, what brand/make of header gaskets seal the best????

I have been getting mine from Teague. They are made like the originals I got with the exhaust from CMI. Not sure of the material but they are have metal sandwiched in between gasket material. As for flow I don't think it will matter as long as you don't block the ports. Mine gaskets are round. Not sure if there the best but I have had NO trouble. I have even reused them in a pinch and they held fine.
