I believe those are "Phenolic spacers." The idea is that they act as an insulator, so less heat is transferred between them. In theory, they could prevent heat-soaking of certain components. In reality, how do you know which parts are hotter? It might be worse to prevent heat transfer, in some cases.

However the principle is sound - insulating these parts thermally will reduce the temp of the LIM a little, and the UIM a lot. This would lower air intake temps, the readings on the air intake temp sensor (assuming it's in the stock location), and bake everything in that area a little less. If I was bored I would start by installing the lim/uim gasket since it's easy, and if it works and seals well, install the lim/block gasket later.
