Head Gasket Replacement

All,

Is it recommended to replace the 6.2L head gasket with a 6.5L version? I'm also trying to identify if the heads have been machined in the past and I need to purchase the larger .010+ gasket (in the 6.2L flavor if I go that route). Any guidance on the gasket selection will be helpful because I can't find a part number on the existing gasket! I haven't ordered anything yet, and my heads should be back from the machine shop early next week. I did not have them ground this time.

6.2 or 6.5?
OEM thickness or larger?
