Default Can you identify these brake calipers?

Looking at this 1990 C2 and the current owner only drives it about once a month... he knows next to nothing about the car. Has a ton of records but it only lists the calipers as "performance" brakes from 2006 I think it said. Is this a picture that gives enough info to a sharp eye who knows what type of porsche calipers they are?
Getting a PPI tomorrow morning with leakdown test... has oil leak but that's a different topic......
thanks

Yeah looks like early C2/ Cab rears.

C4s and later C2s got the 951 brakes.
