Default 774 LS1 Heads? Prototype Heads?

Saw LS heads with a 774 casting number, has anyone heard of this? Saw stamp marks of WC and SER stamped on both heads also

Was told it was out of a GTO but was mounted on a 5.3L block. Nothing anywhere of this casting number existing, kind of curious

No sign of marring or blemishes so I would say that is original

What size are the valves? Could they be some HOLDEN derivative?
