Default Pressure Plate issues???

In view of the KEPII saga, I can re-use my current PP but I'm not entirely sure what it is. Does anyone recognise this?
I now have a lightened stock fly, this PP plus a KEPII (new but at least 4 years old)
a 6 puk clutch disk, and the carbon kevlar one that I felt was slipping just a little bit with the last build.
Any ideas?

Not just at the moment as it's installed in the car. Having said that the engine is out awaiting a new motor and that's when we were about to install the KEPII and 6 puk. I have to admit total ignorance in that the PP's look pretty similar to me without seeing them side by side?

If you need a second opinion I agree with Sean.

It also appears as though the throwout bearing has been installed in photo #3.

After looking at it a bit closer, they are all right. Its a pressure plate.

ps - I also printed it out and brought it down to my local p-car dealer and they confirmed it.

Patrick, because of your excellent detective work, I have decided to enlist your assistance in the identification of the following photo, which has confounded my reasoning for some weeks now.
Any help you can give is much appreciated!

Dave, take that avatar down now. Not kidding. We don't need to see more of that. We didn't even need to see the first one.
