Which DET is this and will it work?

I am purchasing a Bluebird DET, but am a little confused after learning about this particlar engine...First, it has a gray valve cover. I have only seen red valve covered Bluebird engines before - could it perhaps be a newer U-13 engine? Also, it has a factory front-mount intercooler! I have never heard of this on a BB, and was wondering if anyone knew of this, and also if it would fit into my P10. It is from a very reputable seller, but I was a little confused at hearing about this particular engine..anyone know more about it?

gray top? i know the newer DET comes with black valve cover.
Yes, i "believe" there is a factory front mounted IC BB...it's a later year model, would make sense that its also a black top..if that's what you are referring to.

Yes, I guess you could call it black...but does anyone know if the factory f/m intercooler will fit on my P10, and will the downpipe line up?

really? Do you think that it will be salvagable, or am I just going to want to scrap it and buy a kit, like the Hotshot Front Mount kit?
