Did you put it and make sure that it seals it up completely?

and yes i did that with the gasket it seems the round ports are a bit lower than the ovals so a little gasket trimming should do the trick

I tried your link, without success, so perhaps you could have another look at that.

Place an oval port gasket against the manifold to confirm that it does not leave any gaps in the wrong places & if it's all good, then you should be right to go.

On the upside, you have the better head, so the minor inconvenience of sourcing another manifold should eventually yield a better performing engine.
Good one, it looks like you landed on your feet this time.

I guess you can use it for now. I have seen the same thing with A15 heads. The intake on some are round and on others its oval. My uncle had the same problem and used an oval head that didn't come with his motor. All he did was to get an intake that macthed the intake ports on the head.Let me know if you need any help.
