Default exhaust valve seal on intake side YES NO

Is it possible to put an exhaust valve seal on the intake side? Yes/No, if not. Why not? I know OEM has different, I just was wondering if it could be done or not.

Thanks

It's for a B16 head. Well I have two vendors I'm considering buying from. 1 says its okay and that it's better because it has higher heat tolerances. Then the other, selling a super tech brand, says that it does make a difference. So I don't know. OEM honda list them separately but I don't know what the part numbers are. Anybody else know?

supertech does list 2 different part #'s for the intake and exhaust side valve stem seal FYI -- i am not sure if they are interchangable, never really thought about it

why not just get the correct ones you need and not worry about mix matching them ?

I know it's something very little but I already bidded on all ext side seals from a vendor who says it works. I'm saving about $10 which is not much, but I can't justify spending that much for little seals. Whatever, the part number from auto part stores are also the same I found out, so I'm just gonna run it. I'll let you guys know haha.
