Great question. The diagram in the parts catalog (useful assembly guide in many cases) shows the gaskets against the head and the heat shield against the manifold for turbo engines. For NA engines it is not really clear. The service manual says "As from model 1976 (2-branch exhaust manifold),..., and fit gaskets between the flanges of the exhaust manifold and the radiation shield. It also shows a picture with the shield against the head and the gaskets against the manifold. (Page 210-10). I think the heat shield should go against the cyl head.
Best,
Gary
