Default Valve Springs - do you know what these are?

Anyone have any idea what these valve springs actually are?

They measure at:
Bottom:
od 1.260
id 0.820

Top:
OD 1.080
ID 0.655

Free height:
~2.130

Supposedly the seat pressure is 135 and open pressure is 350, don't have the tools to measure that myself.

The wire appears to be "ovate". Color is brownish gold. They have a white stripe.

The closest thing I have found w/those specs is the Manly Nextek - but they don't seem to have a white stripe, nor do they seem to taper off at the top like these (beehive?)

They look like this

No one out there has any idea or can give me a direction to pursue? Does the white paint tell anyone anything - good or bad?

Look at two manufacturers. PSI and PAC, likely one of those.
