That is called a rung bock, you'll need a cooper ring gasket also, this is where the fire rings are separate from the head gasket, the gasket costs roughly £250,
A wire rung block is slightly different, it has wire slightly embedded into the block a few mm from the bore
The bold bit IS what I have got!! (I.e in that pic!)
I have more pics if anyone wants
