Six pack metering blocks

I have three Holley six pack center carbs. I noticed the metering blocks all have different part numbers. Can anyone tell me if these numbers are correct?

Carb 1 4391  metering block 2637
Carb 2 4391  metering block 6170
Carb 3 4392  metering block 6610

Thanks

I found one reference to 2637:

Apparently there's an ID Guide somewhere.

Sarcasm detector, that's a real good invention.

That's more than I was able to find on them.  Interesting, looks like they say this one is for a Ford.  Must have got changed out at some point. Hopefully it will function as it should with the six pack carb.

I ran across a bunch of what I'd call "mods" where people mix-n-match those things to tweak the carbs. Obviously someone out there knows all the differences. Chicago Carburetor had some good tech info when I was researching my Six Pack and double pumper carbs but I didn't see anything with the part numbers for the metering blocks.

This apparently has the numbers that came on each carb but nothing on any of the 3 you listed:

Last post here doesn't sound promising:

But it sounds like maybe calling Holley's Tech line might get you somewhere.

According to the Holley Illustrated Parts Manual dated 1975, both carbs use the 6170
Pardon me but my karma just ran over your dogma.

Thanks for the information everyone.  I guess the other metering blocks should work fine, I'm just restoring a six pack setup and wanted to use all of the correct part numbers.
