I need an explanation...there is a notch between the cylinder bores on the top of the deck...how does the head gasket seal that?

Looks like extra casting material and still needs to be finish machined, which would clean that up. My guess is that all critical mating/sealing surfaces such as this need to be final machined, and are probably cast with extra material so any casting imperfections are sure to clean up in final machining. Just my best guess.
