I do believe you are correct. And I dont think those headers are going to come cheap.. but if you can get them cheap.. getm and ebay those puppies off for the $ to buy a nice set of Sandersons®

eBay Motors: Ford FE 352 390 406 cast iron fastory shorty headers (item 320241629071 end time Apr-25-08 08:56:16 PDT)
My guess is cast iron headers will NOT fit your 65 F100. Only because I looked at a 1969 F100 with an fe390 and cast headers. ( I think they have the same frame width ) The frame had been notched about 1 1/4" to clear the cast headers.
Redmanbob is right. I'v seen cast iron headers go for $500.00 a set.

Here is a page of FE exhaust FE Factory Exhaust Manifolds
Bob shows the Ebay headers as C2AE 9431-C instead of G
I agree if you can get them cheep, do so, you can always make your money back. IMHO
