Header Identification Help

I've got an 89 Bronco 5.0, which of course is the same from the A-pillar forward as a same-year F-150 4x4. I came across these headers on a local site. They're Ford Motorsport headers for a 302 but the seller doesn't know what the original application was for them. (Pics are clickable for larger size/higher resolution.)



Does anyone know what these were intended for and would this work for my 89 Bronco?

Based on the EGR tube on the passenger side header they are probably for a 5L Mustang. General consensus is Mustang headers will not fit an OBS. I believe the outlet angle is too steep to work on our trucks.

Definitely for a 5.0 Mustang. Not easily usable on a pick-up.
