Which way round do the oem stem seals go?

brown/grey rubber with bronze metal in a bag with red tape.
black rubber with silver metal loose in the gasket kit.

I hav'nt got the old set to compare.

please only state if your sure.

Thanks.

Any I've seen fitted in the past have had the brown on the intake side mate. From what I remember there is a very slight difference between the two types but the actual specifics escape me (memory is definitely getting worse!)

Thanks you've just confirmed what 2 other people have said , I think the black rubber for the exhaust valves can with stand higher temperatures.
