Default Head gasket question

Ok so I feel kind of dumb for asking this but I wana be sure efore I buy the wrong one. I am rebuilding my b18 and I'm getting a cosmetic head gasket. I find them all day but there are 81 through 84 mm. What does this measurement stand for and which one do I need. It's for the most part factor internals and I'm running low boost. Any help is appreciated. Thank you

84mm is for B20/CR-V. 81mm is for all other B-series engines.

Also, it's Cometic...

The head gasket bore/measurement should reflect the bore of the cylinders/pistons. As said above all stock B18 series pistons are 81mm
