Help identifying early Porsche factory tools

Friends of the family are closing down their repair shop after 50 some years and I'm helping them sort through tools and parts. Their father - age 90 and the sole mechanic - worked until a few months ago when he was forced into involuntary retirement for health reasons. He has trouble communicating and his sons are not mechanics, leaving many questions about what they have in the shop.

They have a collection of Porsche factory tools and aftermarket versions of Porsche tools that were probably mostly purchased in the 70s, for 356,901,911. Could you guys help me identify the tools?

There are a lot of photos and rather than post them all here I put them in a google drive. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1AdSHMtsIeGMhheSlcBIWSZvYLOaYuk3v

I've identified some of the tools which are at the bottom of the page. I was under the impress that official factory tools were all made by Hazet or Matra and labelled as such, along with "Made in Germany" and a P### tool number. Some have all of that, others just a P### tool number. Some don't seem to have any markings at all.

I haven't seen any of these for sale on ebay aside from one listing for the P7 valve spring tool offered at $750. They are interesting in selling all of these tools but I'm still trying to figure out what they have.

thanks,
James B.

I would love to purchase everything from them and put them to use in my shop.

I send you a message on the contact page of your website with the phone number of the son managing the closing of the shop.
