Head gasket thickness fJCW

I do have a fJCW (TF97447) with a burnt exhaust valve:


I'm somewhat unsure about the head gasket that I should buy as replacement. There are 0.9mm and 1.2mm. JCW is often associated with the 1.2mm. I measured my old head gasket (4 layer metal) with a digital caliper and I have around 1mm at the edges (metal). Those were the identifiable markings on the gasket in the car:




Any hints, recommendations?

never mind. I measured at the wrong spot. At the cylinder it's the expected 1.2mm
