I believe they are flat, but I honestly can't remember.  I pulled the pic below from a post made by kaysystems in this thread http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=32427.0.  You are correct that they just center themselves The o-rings were introduced to help stop leaking.  I guess some people either don't use them, find some sort of alternative o-ring, or use a better gasket than what comes in the Cycle X kit to help prevent leaking.

My knowledge os sealing theory is lacking but you'd want any o ring equal to or slightly less then the gasket, right?

Is Honda mans copper spray technique a measure to help with this as well?
