Its a Version 1~2 in the pictures with dogbone pistons - not much use if you're looking for bits to repair the RB5 as they use HB twin dot pistons and a rear thrust Phase 2 block.
The CDB would be worth keeping/selling to fund the repairs.
Bit of a "ghetto" manual cam belt tensioner fitted to the block too.
