If I read you right you are using c2vts head with saxo inlet?
hope you have drilled the extra fixings as per the saxo head as c2 head does not have as many
also forget c2 inlet gasket --they stopped using them due to problems with manifold falling off on c2 vts (alloy manifold ) --due to fewer bolts +gasket compressing allowing bolts to loosen
and then changed to using PU sealer on c2 vts
plastic manifolded jp4 engines did not have the problem
Yes that's correct, jp4 head and the original j4 inlet. I've drilled the holes out and it fits a treat.

So to cut a long story short, get a new set of o rings from Citroen and just stick some sealant round it and jobs a goodun!
