Valve cover differences

I have some early valve covers here and some of them have a lip on the bottom edge and some of them don't...anyone know what years the different styles were used on? Is one style more desirable than the other?

N-N-O-O-O! Will those fit? Would make the bike stand out! Z1 valve covers...maybe KZ900(?). Didn't realize there were differences until I noticed it...was just wondering if I have valuable parts here and I can start getting ready for retirement!
