Default Manifolds identified. Need tensioner id.

I have attached some pictures of a set of manifolds that were on my '01 vette ls1 when I got it. Also, I have a couple of tensioners that were not on the engine but I need help identifying them. There are no numbers on the stainless manifolds so they may be custom. There is a part # on the tensioner (12580162). There are actually 2 different tensioners but they have the same bolt pattern and one is a gates and the other maybe a GM.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Was the vette new? Those look like 97-99 sheetmetal "headers" not the manifolds that came on all vette 00 & up.

Agreed. They look like the junk I took of my 98 Camaro...just slightly different shape, and no EGR port.

THANKS, I believe you are correct, there is a pair just like them listed on ebay as 99 vette headers. Another conversion guy had my engine preparing it for 70s model vette.

I still would like some help with the last 2 images of the tensioners. Part number (12580162).
