The head codes are for a Version 5~6 WRX/STi ( common casting ) and should have the off set Inlet manifold bolt pattern as opposed to the inline bolt pattern for the Version 1~4.

Without pulling a cam cover off and checking if it has under bucket shims(STi) or over bucket shims (WRX) and checking the camshaft codes, it's difficult to determine externally what engine you have.
