I'd recommend a 404 over a 403 considering a 403 proves there is something worth hacking into.

index.php:
<?php
define('isdoc',1);
include('includes/include.sqlfunctions.php');
// Rest of code for index.php
?>

include.sqlfunctions.php (or other include file):
<?php
if(isdoc !== 1) // Not identical to 1
{
    header('HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found');
    echo "<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC \"-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN\">\n<html><head>\n<title>404 Not Found</title>\n</head>";
    echo "<body>\n<h1>Not Found</h1>\n<p>The requested URL ".$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']." was not found on this server.</p>\n";
    echo "<hr>\n".$_SERVER['SERVER_SIGNATURE']."\n</body></html>\n";
    // Echo output similar to Apache's default 404 (if thats what you're using)
    exit;
}
// Rest of code for this include
?>
