Maybe you got an engine with SAI, and your original didn't have it? I don't know for sure just trying to help.

For pics try the photobucket app, or plug your phone into a computer and do that way.

Yeah you will need to upload from another site like photobucket i believe. My guess is the head you have is from a newer motor

Yep, SAI. You need an older 06 or an 05 head without it. Although if you use a header for non SAI you might be fine as is... not sure.

update, the holes under #2 and #3 do not go anywhere, they are just slight dips. the casting numbers are the same as my 06s head, and when i pulled it off the motor everything on it seems the same as my 06 which i know does not have SAI, im needing someone who has pictures of the exhaust ports maby from a header install to compare

Yeah the holes shouldn't matter. They are covered by the manifold and are only used with sai equipped cars.
