what the heck is this gasket?

The only I6 engines I've ever worked on or owned are 2/3f and 1fz. This gasket was in my box of other 1fz engine gaskets that have accumulated over the years and I have no clue what it is. As you can see in the pic it's maybe 2/3 the length of the block and almost certainly for an I6 of some kind. Am I having a huge brain fart?

Definitely not for the 1FZ or 2/f or 3f. Looks like an intake gasket for a 3VZ or 5VZ

Interesting, I wouldn't have supposed a v6 to have a gasket like this. even more interesting must be the story of how it ended up in my stash, haha. Thanks for your input.

Not for the 5vz that's more in-line and these are all offset
