In a word, no. Yours are v1-4 gaskets. AFAIK v5 and 6 have more bolt holes, which is a better design. Could be the same outers though...

M/Y 93-96, Phase 1 and 2 are the same.
M/Y 99 and 00, Phase 5 and 6 are the same.
From experience I remeber that ver 3 and 4 are similar but not exactly the same but I cannot remeber exactly the difference.

lugs that protrude inwards from the outer edge are in a different location
