Perhaps it only had one oil drain hole ?
Thank you all. The reason I asked was that I did read somewhere about the bridge but it dd not say
between the flame rings. So to be honest, I thought there might be some sort on indent on one side of the flame rings.
But now I understand. I am grateful

The original halite flame ring head gaskets never had a bridge joining the rings.
My recollection is that the two faces were impregnated with different adhesives to bond with the different head and barrel materials. Hence the need to stamp “top” on the top surface. Also the reason for having the head and barrel faces clean, dry and importantly, free from any lubricant or sealant.
