Default Aftermarket rods and pistons ?

Hey Happy Fathers Day you guys just purchased a 6.0 shortblock that came out of a sandrail and it was supposed to be stock components but after year down I haven’t ever seen these piston or rods before, I was hoping someone has seen or used these before when I searched the pistons they came up as Mahle power pack #ls1105030i32 but no numbers on the rods as you can see any help is appreciated

That’s an aftermarket I-beam rod. What rod bolt was in them?

I figured the fastener was ARP, but which one? 2000? 3/8? 7/16?

That is an imported rod, I have seen it sold under many names. It is actually a pretty good one for the price. Looks like a stock replacement piston, Not sure of the brand but it looks like a coated hypereutectic.
