Help I.D. headers

I have these two headers that were in my father's garage for.... Probably 25-30 years now. He was a Honda technician from the 70's until he couldn't work anymore- about 10 testes ago. He insisted these were Honda headers, I believe he said for the CVCC engine. That kind of makes sense why the down pipe is kicked the other direction. If someone had an old manifold or even gasket hanging out- can you please measure some of the mounting home distances for me to compare them too? Ultimately I want to sell them but can't seem then without confirmation.
thanks guys for your help!

Re: Help I.D. headers

One set came from a FWD and the other one looks to have come from a RWD. I'm guessing the RWD one is from an old S-chassis because those were in production right around the 70's and I'm pretty sure Honda wasn't making anything else RWD at the time.

The FWD one is probably for a CVCC.

Just to clarify, the RWD one has the pipe veering off 90*.
