Most of the Valve guides are Elco, a lot of chassis parts are Ruville. I'm just not sure on these. I don't usually buy OEM, to be honest.

How old, are we talking pre 60's?

KS ( in a stylized font ) is Kobelsmidt , this is OE for MB and many other German cars.

I don't know about Elco, but Ruville vaguely sounds familiar.

Did these parts come from an independent shop?
