Default small turbo rocker gasket question

what differences are there between the small turbo rocker gaskets and large turbo . Am i right in thinking the only difference is they are made from rubber versus normal paper type gaskets?
Any help appreciated.

I thought the ST cam cover wouldnt fit a LT head and visa versa... so presumably the same with gasket?

just look at the differences in cam covers, and you will see why they are not interchangeable. the small turbo only has about 6 or 8 bolts, and the large has loads. and they don't all line up.
