The 4x4's use a rubber 'o' ring which sits in a recess where the thermostat housing sits on the head. The gasket shown is a thermostat housing gasket from a 2wd so will not be used on a fourbie.

As there is so little difference in the way of gaskets between 2 and 4wd they probably just package the lot in every set.
