Default GT40 Head questions

A friend of mine picked up a 1997 Mountaineer for scrap I got the heads off it before it went. The one head has gt stamped on it and has the 3 bars on the end but the other doesn't. My question is are they both to have the same markings? Or do I have 2 different heads?

Did the mystery head have any other casting numbers on it? F3ZE? E7TE? That sort of thing.

Is it just me or do those both look like right side heads?

Turns out the head in question was a e7 mustang had cast # E7TE-PA. The GT40 head casting #F3ZE-AA from a o3 cobra.
