Default Control Arm part numbers / Date code

Background - 1966, stuffed in the front before I bought it.
Question - Does anyone know how I can verify if my upper and lower control arms are NOT bent?

Also, do the upper and lower control arms have part numbers and or date codes on them?

Thanks

Scott

Remove them and measure against known good units.
No part numbers or date codes on them.
