There were no tabs on big block intake side gaskets similar to those on the small block intake gaskets. I posted photos of original 1966-67 BB gaskets in previous responses. If interested, you can find them by searching 3876197 on this DB.

thanks very much , maybe the judging guide is referring to the round tab on the middle of the end rails that say GM
thanks Bob
