Default Wreckers pick-up

I just got back from the wreckers, I needed a new door and a power steering belt tensioner. I found them and they were all good, so I asked if he had any performance parts for the ol' girl. He had a set of extractors there which he had pulled off a speedway car he was building, and gave em to me! All they needed was a small weld on a crack and now they're perfect! He had them welded onto the car so all I'm going to do is cut it where he's done the weld, and weld a flange onto them. Then I'll get a pipe welded to the cat with a flange on it so it can reach and bolt up. He said they're Genies!! I'm not sure if they are but he's a good guy and I believe him, well, I want to Can anyone shed some light on me and confirm they are Genie extractors? The branding just says B87.

Welding looks dodgy in some spots, maybe home made, but as long as they dont leak, its still a good pick up, My mate picked up a 9'' diff out of a fairlane for $50 (bastard :p) because the new owners didnt know the diff, (so to speak) between a 9 and a standard 'lane diff

I will have a guess and say they a Huricane's or some old Lukey's, could also be a very old set of Genies, but most genies has a name plate welded to them.
