They are stamped with a pop pressure of 115 Bar. A "normal" injector is on the right, the unknown one is on the left. Any idea what engine these are from?
In the Mitchell CD Service Manual (the 300D section) they say (as you have pictured/described) there are 2 types of Nozzle Holders.
It also tells you can use them (as an individual assembly) interchangeably.
However, as you have noted the parts are different and you cannot mix the parts from type of Nozzle Holder to another (also I have had both apart and the interior parts are a different sizes).

I also have some of both types I pulled from various Mercedes at the J yard; none were pulled from VWs.
