[Healeys] Why did they make it like that?

[Simon Lachlan]

If you read enough of the literature pertaining to our old cars you will
-correctly - get the impression that they were occasionally put together
with whatever they had available at the time. My guess is that they simply
ran out of round holes and, having a quantity of square ones available, used
them up.

Does anyone know the reason why on the 3000 engine, the #1  and #6  
exhaust ports and manifolds are square and not round like the rest?
