Trying to match up these old rotted headers. Think they might be Hedman but i can't seem to find a listing on the number stamped on them. The rest of the exhaust is in great shape so ultimately i would like to get an exact match to these and bolt them up to the existing exhaust.

I think you're right about them being Hedman. I couldn't make out your part number but I found this link that shows a photo of Hedman headers that appear to be just like yours: https://www.autoaccessoriesgarage.co...inted-Headers? I couldn't come up with a part number for them though. Maybe contact Hedman and send them your photos?
One issue you may have with Hedman is that i think most if not all of there headers use the ball & socket system on the collector so it will not be a simple R&R. you will have to cut off the reducer you currently have and weld or clamp on the new style reducer. not a big deal but a little extra work will be involved.
And yes, I expect there to be pain in unhooking the ball socket so I asked exhaust person to build a slip joint in front of crossmember to get the pipes off the collector, but will need to pull whole exhaust off.
fortunately, my exhaust is clamped between the crossmember and the over axle pipes so it was easy to disassemble. Especially nice to get to the transmission as well.
