Help!? Is this S5 or S4?

I have never seen an S4 oil metering pump so I do not know what they look like. Please tell me which this is! Thanks

ok,it looks like it's an s5 from the rubber gromet on the left. If it's an s4 there should be a hard gold pole attached to the omp and then to the throttle body. If it's an s5 there should be no pole, just wires going into the omp.

Look at the actuators that open the 6 ports. If the rods pull outwards to open its a s5, if they push in its a s4.

Here are two more pics, this motor is not NA, it is TII so no 6-ports. Otherwise it is also 1500miles from me so this is all that I have to identify it. If it is S5, I will buy it and then I will promptly give people a great place to get jdm 13bt motors real cheap. We'll see if it runs if it turns out to be S5. I am thinking that it is because the white 6-wire connector looks like an S5 oil metering pump connector. Thanks for the input guys!

just look and see if there is a rod going from the omp to the TB ..... if there is then its mechanical... hence a s4... if not its a s5

I don't know what the rod looks like and I can't see the motor in person. That is why I am posting pics for all to see bro!

If you are just trying to find out if it is an S5 or a S4 why don't you just check out the exterior? Post some pics of the exterior and what year is it? Or are you just trying to find out if it is a S5 engine in an S4?

Wow, sorry guys...this is a jdm ENGINE ONLY...the car is in some japanese scrap yard. I know the obvious stuff, and these pics are all I have to work with as far as what series it is. If I could see this engine in person, I would not have to post this question. This is being sold by a JDM importer that has no idea what series of motor it is and I am trying to help them because they are super-cheap ($950 shipped to your door) and they have 3 motors total that once I figure out what series they are, I will be able to buy one and let people know about them on here!! Thanks guys, maybe I should have been a little more specific.

edit: are the pics not showing up to people?

looks like an electric oil metering pump in the first pic, so that owuld make it a S5, antoher way to tell is where the knock sensor is, if its above the spark plugs then its s5 and if its on the top of the engine by where it says 13B then its S4, it does look like an S5 because of the plastic coolant neck.
