Default MAF Relay Question?

Are the two relays behind the battery on an '86 L98 iron head base coupe the same exact part? They look identical to me. I thought there were two burnoff relays and one power relay. If there are supposed to be three, then where is the third one located? Thanks for any help.

Third one could be an aux cooling fan relay.

The burnoff and maf relay have different p/n's I think, but any GM 5-pin fan relay will work there.
