Default What kind of sleeves are these?

Here is the link.. It supposedly a Benson open deck sleeved LS block

http://www.we-todd-did-racing....DE%3D

My friend has the block above and he was told that they are Benson sleeved. I wanna pick it up, but I only want to pick it up if it is benson sleeved. I know it has a block guard, but they are ductile iron sleeves.

I think its just a block guard from the pic. If it was sleeved what purpose would there be for a block guard....
