my early 750ss has showa forks supposedly they 41mm GD031 Showas but when dismantling they do not appear to have showa internals as per parts list ????????!!!!!!!

In fact the internals appear more marzzochi style ????

I am confused

any ideas what type shoea forks they might be they work really well but one needs a new oil seal and both need fresh oil which I will use Rock oil 7.5

What size is the hex on the top cap?

Is there an S cast into the inside of the lower legs?

I've seen non-adjustable Paioli's in the 41mm USD on Monsters before...
