Daz - 90% sure it does. The ECP set does, but is slightly more expensive.

The gsf head gasket set definetely comes with a profile gasket! did a full head and front of engine rebuild recently, might be worth checkin the water pump is in good nik whilst you've got the head off and make sure you replace the chain tensioner with a modified BMW tensioner.
