Exhaust Gaskets

Received and going to install my new FP 2 into 1 exhaust. The stock exhaust is removed but I cant seem to locate the old gaskets? I have a set of new OEM gaskets and was wondering if it makes a difference which side they're installed (facing) in that one side of the gasket is flat and one side is rounded. Any suggestions/thoughts

Good morning ! I had the same question when I installed my V&H's about three years ago . The boy's at the dealer told me to put the flat side towards the engine and to use a little grease to hold them in place . It made sense to me . Haven't had any issues !!

Enjoy your day !!
