Buy a 3.6L head gasket & place it on the case & you will see.
I did drill the 3.6 engine block to bolt the uppermost bolt of the early 3.4 head.

So I should use 3.6 head gaskets? I bought a 3.6 head gasket to overlay on the 4-6 3.4 head gasket... Aside from bolt closest to the chain, it looked very similar.
