Name those rod bolts

Working on the slowest engine rebuild ever done, removed the rods and found these bolts. They don't have any markings that I can see on them. What brand might they be?

Also, they are 2.7 rods, right? Big end is almost 24mm thick.

I'll ask in different words what I'm really trying to learn. Do you think these are 1 time use or can I reuse these guys?

never reuse anything you're unsure of.

they look like ARP. If so they should have a marking on the head.

no markings on them anywhere. I have emailed some pics to Raceware to see if they recognize their children or not. THey do appear to be treated or coated or something. They are darker than most of the other hardware. They "feel" very premium for whatever that is worth.

If you really want to name them, you could use the names of the Dwarves from The Hobbit.
Let me see if I remember them:
Ori Nori Dori Oin Gloin Balin Dwalin Bifur Bofur Bombur Fili Kili - that's 12- and Thorin Oakenshield, in case you have a spare.
Though why you would want to name your rod bolts after dwarves is beyond me.....

The nuts certainly don't look like an OE part...

The 993 nuts look the same. After looking again, not ARP as I don't see a dimple in the bolt head to center a stretch gauge.

Cheers
