NY What is this manifold for?

If I have an unmarked (possibly custom) manifold for a turbo, how can I tell what application it is for? In other words, what kind of turbo will fit and possibly it's designation? Supposedly it's for a 12a but again, I have no way of knowing.

Thanks

and by the way....I would post pics but I cannot upload any as they are too big. how should I save them to my computer? (or how should I upload them?)

the waste gate should at a minimum be placed at the junction or down stream of all runners.

Looks like a one size fits all wastegate flange. The only thing it cant handle is a v-band
