L69 pistons?

This is from an 84 Z28 that had VIN G. The block has a one piece rear main seal. I'm thinking they swapped motors or something, but here's the picture of the pistons.

If it's a one piece RMS it's definitely not original.

Same pistons I had in my L69. If it's a one-piece rear seal, yeah, someone could've swapped in a '87 up shortblock. I think they all had the same pistons 87-up.

My L69 had those pistons as well, but so did all F-body 305's after '85 or so.

'86 had those pistons and a one-piece rear main seal. '87 had a slight dish to them and roller cam.
