NOS 2.2 connecting rods?

[VA_alfa]

I picked up a large lot of early Porsche parts at an auction recently and am going through the bits now. Most of these I will sell. I have found information about the parts and their fair market prices on some but for example I can’t find much on these. What I have here is a set of 6 connecting rods for a 2.2 motor and they appear NOS. They include bearings. How can I know if they are a matching set and then their market value?

Any help is appreciated.

A factory set is probably within 5 grams (lightest - heaviest), (fwiw I think at a good machineshopmthese days is w.I .5 grams?)

This set appears to have some coloring? Is it due to oil or heat, but either way not NOS?

You also might take a close look at the pin bushing. When they are new they are usually bright and shiny w o any scores. How are yours?

Just my $.02

Thanks Richard, the rods are coated with slightly sticky substance which led me to believe they are NOS. Looking at the pin bushings with a flashlight, they are more copper colored and do show some internal wear marks. So maybe not NOS?

Also if un used the small end bushings should show a clear cross hatch pattern from honing for the pin fit, also the big end should also show a clear cross hatch as well.
