If it’s off already put it back on before fitting the head, but its advisable to fit No2 timing belt cover after you’ve bolted the head down, the reason being " if you skim the head, the head will sit lower down and the bottom part of No 2 timing belt cover could foul the top of the ally timing belt case (as shown in your parts image)" If that makes sense. Never been an issue with me, but I suppose if you removed a large amount from the head and used a standard gasket the bottom part of No 2 timing case cover could need trimming down.
