Cylinder 4.2 head being stripped for rebuild has a large number 2 stamped next to 3 of the exhaust tappet guides with a smaller stamping of jag 115 alongside.
Is this relevant to oversize tappet guides already fitted ?

The stampings don't mean anything to me but it's easy enough to tell; just measure them.

On closer inspection these 3 tappet guides have been replaced and can only assume it was done at build.
They not like the usual one piece oversize guides and are identified by having 2 rings of metal 1 inside the other.
