Cylinder head issue

Just got my cylinder heads back from Walt at CE and they look gorgeous. One problem...I can't seem to find the numbers I etched into the heads when I sent them off. I can read a couple and 1 or 2 are vaguely recognizable but the bottom line is I'm only sure on #'s 4 and 5. Am I screwed? Walt redid the faces so I guess keeping them straight would have been a moot point. Can I just reassemble them any way or is there some other measurement I need to make before I put them together?
TIA

Just assemble them. There's no reciprocating mass in a cylinder head that needs balancing, and the sealing surfaces have been renewed. Numbering/order from disassembly is a moot point.
