I was curious

New? Yah that is good. One of the rebuilds I bought promptly leaked at the seam.

Guess that could happen with new parts too, (NOS?) but much less
likely I figure.

Good news about the older system is that it's highly possible that a
proportioning valve from a Bay is the same. I have seen these new
online.
