OEM Connecting rods... difference in weight?

I've been looking for the weight of stock rods on B-series engines. I'm looking in particular for a comparsing between B18A/B , B18C1 and B18C5 rods. Does anyone have this info? I know that the ITR rods are lighter, but apart from that, I have no clue whatsoever on stock weight.
