Default Unknow lts and Y pipe question

Ok guys i got a dumb question.. I just bought a 2000 z28 camaro and the guy gave me a set of longtubes thats still in the plastic.. I cant find any numbers or names on them anywhere!!! I think they may be pacesetters but i dont know.. Heres a quick cell phone pic of one..

My other question is Can i use any y pipe for longtubes or does it need to be header specific?? the car has magnaflow cat back already on it.. and ofcours my car is a 2000 so it has egr and im looking for a good catted y pipe.. I would appreciate any help..

They're not Pacesetters. Look like ebay specials based on the collector - if the driver side collector looks goofy and angles up, they're probably ebay headers.

"Supposedly" the ebay headers need a special y-pipe because of the driver's side collector angle, but any decent exhaust shop should be able to fab one up (although I'd pick a good y merge and have them use that, instead of making one).
