Default Any markings on ARP head studs?

Bought a motor that was susposed to he a 5.3 and it ended up being a 4.8. When I pulled the head off, I didn't see any ARP stamps on anything with the head studs or nuts. Just trying to figure out if they are China studs or not. I know most anything ARP I've used before had stamps on it.
