The 195.6 sure did come with a YF -- the 58-61 flat head did anyway! But you're correct -- the 195.6 OHV never came with a Carter YF. The YF has a much larger venturi than the little Holley 1909 or the Carter RBS used on the OHV engines. I still have the plate I made to put a pair of flat head YFs on a 195.6 OHV. Ran fine, but was no improvement over the WCD 2V (except in "wow" factor). Sold the pair of YFs to a guy using them on a Corvair (I think....).

I don't think the 195.6 was ever delivered with a Carter YF, but it
might fit on there fine. It would be a fine match.
