Default B7 to Z6 intake manifold swap

I'm going to be swapping my d15b7 intake manifold for a d16z6 one this coming weekend.
It also has been port matched to a Integra GSR throttle body.
What doesn't make sense to me is that I've been told that I need an intake manifold gasket from the Z6. So if I need a different intake manifold gasket how is it going to fit on a B7 engine?
I've always been told that this is a direct swap, but now that I've found out that I need the Z6 gasket it doesn't make sense to me.
I figured the gasket for a B7 and Z6 would be the same exact thing if it was a direct fit.
Can someone please clear this up?

you want the z6 gasket for the head, plus you should be replacing the gasket if you take the mani off of the car, standard precaution.
