Identify this head please lads

[snowwolf]

Can anyone let me know if this looks like a heard from a 1996 4.5 petrol I am unsure if it is going to fit my car, the seller does not know what year landcruiser it is from, he said he has the head and a crank and wants £50 for both, but I wanted to make sure that it might fit my 1996 LC 4.5 any help will be appreciated.

Not that I would know anyway but the first two things that come to mind are look for the part number or whatever identifying number is on the head, followed by better closer pictures from more angles would aid in identification.

So did they make more than one inline straight 6 head for the LC?

Yes they did. There was the diesel 6 cylinder and 2 gas models at least. Actually 1 model with different heads. Here in the states you get an aluminum head with ERG passageways and abroad you get a cast iron head w/out the gegr stuff I think.

Can't tell from the pic which one that is.

In some ways it looks like an ally head and it also looks cast in other areas, he has not replied to my questions yet, 2 emails I have sent him
