Head swaps

I have a 39 motor, I believe this centre head water outlet went to 48 ..

Then the outlet went to the front of head in 49.

Will a post 49 head fit on a 39 motor ?
 
Yes, but you have to block a hole in the block face of the heads, front most one on each head. If you plop a pre 49 (48 for truck) gasket on the heads you'll see the problem holes not covered properly by the gasket.
