So, a 82mm vs. 84mm.
Yes, an 84mm hole can fit over an 82mm hole with no issues. (not the other way). For a diameter, that's a mere 1mm around the perimeter. So, YES is the answer, the 84 can fit on an 82.
My years working at GM shows that a 307CI and a 305CI engine are also basically the same, just one is made for Pontiac at the time and the other for Chevy. Lots of parts are interchangeable, but like the gaskets, one will fit both and the other will only fit one.
Not sure of the Yanmar engines the 82 vs. 84, if one is sleeved and the other not? Or both are sleeved. Thus, the gasket of 84 works to your benefit.
Yes, having a Part Catalog for your specific tractor and engine type is a real necessity.

Aaron can help you with this hopefully.
With my YM2610, it shares parts with several other Yanmars and John Deere's.
