If it stll looks like the pics on the auction site I'd say you're fine. The side shot shows the flange a lil bit and it definatly looks better than the stock ones.

As long as the runners are clean and no carbon in them then I'd say its new, it'd take an aweful lot of work to clean up a stocker and go through all that to sell it for 112 bucks.

A stock replacement is more than that also. So it would be a loss for that guy anyway.

Bolt it up and roll.

 

The numbers are the same. If there is still doubt, I have a ton of pics on photobucket, my user name is doc_ss and its in the manifold folder. I can't get to photobucket here at work otherwise I'd post a direct link.

 

Yeah Doc, I actually typed in the part# from the manifold under a search and found an old thread you posted about 2 years ago. But anyway, yah, there's no carbon inside the manifold at all. It just still feels kinda knobby inside, that's why I have my doubts. Oh well, I'll still post pics tonight to see what you guys think. Thanks for all the help! +rep to all I can.

 

The exhaust side should be smooth, well.smoother...if you can clean it out, it'd be easier to identify.
