2.4 Head Gaskets

I have a '79 200 HP 2.4. Checked compression. Right bank 120. Left bank 130. Different head gasket thickness. .040 vs .050 (aka 1.0 vs 1.2mm). I can find 1.0 mm T for the 2.5, but not the 2.4. So, can I use a 2.5 gasket on the 2.4. Or, is there a 1.0 for the 2.4 I haven't found?
Have not pulled the heads off yet. So not sure about liner bolts vs block bolts, and dowel pins. SN5321173
 
I have searched the Scream and Fly forums, and they are all for the 2.5. Not a specific answer on the 2.4. Guess I will have to post the question. (not a member is why have not posted there). Thanks.
