Yep, the E5AE and E6AE heads had those heart shaped chambers, which shrouded the crap out of the valves. The valves were a lot smaller than the E7's too. They're good for about $15 at the scrap metal place on a good day.

I think you are missing some info on the head and casting numbers.

The roller rockers are 93-95 OEM cobra 1.7's

Yep. Those casting numbers don't sound familiar, at least not the one on the block. Ford's casting numbers always start with a letter, those may have been check numbers or something like that. Unless the heads are GT40's, the only place to find the number on those is on the bottom/underside on the intake/pushrod side.

Yep, those were stock on the 93-95 Cobras as QWK posted, and they were made by Crane for Ford. If that's a Cobra engine, it should have GT40 heads on it. They're easy to spot, look on the ends for 3 vertical bars, and by the head bolt holes on the ends, there wil be a "GT" cast into it right by the head bolt hole, and by the corner of the valve cover. Here's a couple of pics for reference..





....hope this helps.
