Gotcha. I see the markings on the gears made of harder plastic but I can't find any markings on the softer gears that I am replacing. Those gears seem to be blistered in a waxy substance that when scratched off, would remove a thin layer underneath. The gears are so malleable that I could split one in half with just my fingernail.
