I tried different combinations now but there is always this smooth seam left.  
I guess it’s something specific to Metahumans.  
Your script works perfectly, though.

I imported the head from Unreal into Maya and compared it to the head I got from Quixel bridge and the vertex normals are almost perfectly identical.  
No idea at the moment what else to try.

Maybe it’s related to this other issue I’m having: [Import Metahuman to Maya from Bridge, head and body disconnected when exporting to FBX from Unreal](https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/import-metahuman-to-maya-from-bridge-head-and-body-disconnected-when-exporting-to-fbx-from-unreal/1999343)
