Picked up a 358495 off flea bay, it was so frugal I took a chance with the so-so picture quality and what looks to be wire wheel "cleaning". No light at the seams, the cavities are dark, no light. A bit excessive schuck, the pin holes are a little wallowed. Judicious stoning should take the tiny lip down. Possibly tap the pins out a teeny bit. A little lead splatter below and between the cavities, get them up in temp and that should come right off. As is, the halves rock on that splatter. Sprue plate was at an angle to the top of the mould, I'll use fine emory and a tile to level the plate off, might have to pill the sprue stop pin and emory the top square.
