Default These lifters do not look stock

I bought a 2004 Z06 1 year ago. Thought the engine was stock. I was diagnosing lifter noise and removed the lifters to find these in the picture. They do not look stock for a 2004 LS6. Also, the head bolts were 2 different sizes. According to ARP, the large bolts should all be same size for 2004. Now I think the engine is not all stock, but I think the engine has never come out based on my removal of the transmission recently due to all connectors and wiring being in 100 % stock location and condition. (usually some brittle plastic breaks, or clips dont get put back excatly)

That’s what came out of my 2000 C5 LS1. So it’s definitely a stock GM lifter. The “LS7” GM lifter has the roller wheel fully enclosed. The LS7 came out in 06. So those you show just might be the stockers

Looks just like the ones I took out of the LS6 short block that I just put in my car.
