These two components get machined at the same time, making them a unique set for life (unless line bored again)

Wouldn’t the VIN have given them the right part? Or is this just a manufacturing issue with the part?

I've seen similar. Ford 4.6 kept having valve cover leaks because the engine builder didn't shorten the timing cover when the heads were machined.

Ran into a similar problem on an Audi 4.2; someone apparently broke a cam cover, replaced it with a junkyard part. Leaked profusely & wiped both cams!
