Default 1jz upper waterneck gasket?

So it seems I'm leaking some coolant from where the upper water neck meets the head. Does anyone know if the gasket there is the same as the 2jz one? I don't see why it wouldn't be....but I just want to make sure. Thanks!

I remember it being metal and I think it is the same as I believe I bought a 2jzgte engine gasket set when I did my 1J.

^That might be what I'll end up doing. If the gasket is metal, and I put a coat of fipg on there it should be fine. *Knock on wood*
