Quadrajet Base Gasket Question

[NC_John]

Seems to be a few of us working on quadrajunks today.

I have a question about base gaskets...

Here is the bottom of my carb-



Here is the old gasket-



and here is the question mark- here is the new gasket provided in the rebuild kit. Notice how much of the orifices are not covered the way the first gasket did...



Is the new one the right one and the one I should use or should I re-use the old one? I don't know if those orifices need to be covered up....

anybody know?
