Which fsic core did I receive?

So I ordered a fsic from wbodystore over Black Friday and I just received it yesterday. What I've noticed by comparing to others that just got theirs is that it's different and resembles a zzp core. The one I have doesn't have the sides milled out and grooved like machinegunsquid's and this guy Clint. Mine resembles the zzp one with straight sides. I don't have a scale to where I can weigh it since wbs is 12.x lbs and zzp is 10.8 lbs or something.
So where is the pcv functioning valves located and what should I be looking for? Since zzp has the front pcv valve and wbs requires a valve cover breather?

What I got:

notice the hole, for pcv so no breather?

The only difference is the milled(curved) edges and that hole by the half moon. And mine has that hole which is for the pcv? Also, makes me think I received the zzp core (which I'd have no complaints) what do you guys think? I really need to weigh this thing, maybe I'll grab my neighbors scale.

also here is the thread comparing the two for those wondering.

Ya that looks to be the zzp core to me..

Nvm i see the pcv hole now lol... nice so now you dont have to run a breather... looks like you made out ahead :th_thumbsup-wink:
 


Ya what prob happend was WBS didnt have anymore cores made so they prob just got some from zzp to complete orders.. ive heard of that happening before in the past on certain items

Yeah I ordered after they were sold out n got it a little cheaper. So that's definitely what happened. I'll weigh it to make sure tho soon.
 




Yes, Same core I got. Not entirely sure who made it, but it fits, looks good, and works.

just FYI, the REAR PCV works, but the FRONT IS BLOCKED. You will need to run a breather, or tap the front PCV for the "WBS" core.
