i don't know if it's FR or not but it looks pretty good. Welds look solid. What are you torqueing the bolts to? And have you checked the head flange for flatness. It almost looks uneven just from the picture

exactly. its still a quality looking mani. it should make power for sure. and by the looks of the condition of it, if none of the welds have cracked, you should be good to go.
