What heads are on this 455?

I have a chance to buy the 455 out of a 1973 442. Factory engine but I cant see the head castings due to the brackets. Anyone know what casting they are?

if they are the original heads for that block they would be "J" heads(AKA "smog" heads) cast #411783

or K, Ka #413191 depending on where the engine is out of originally
