Default Head help question

On my 318 pony build, I used 1983 heads. In the center of the head is a small port with the U shaped port around it. I have a Weiland single plane intake, but it only covers the smaller center port leaving U shaped port open. Engine runs great, but I get puffs of exhaust smoke from the U shaped port. Are there a head without the U shaped port, or a way to block it off. Thanks

The intake is an older Weiland made for 340 318 360. It has the angle bolt for non magnum heads, but I think it was made for the before egr heads.
