Default 1999 GT valve cover gaskets / do the grommets go through the gasketS

Hi,

I am putting my 1999 GT back together and have a question about the valve cover gaskets. It's a 4.6L Windsor V8 motor.

Ford Valve Cover Gaskets (2L3Z-6584-AA, 2L3Z-6584-BA)

Are the gaskets supposed to slip over the grommets? The way the gasket is molded, and the way the grommets poke through the cover, it sort of looks like it .... and it would hold the gaskets in place real slick. My bad for not paying more attention when I tore it down .... just don't want it to leak.

Appreciate your advice,

Rex
