"Type R" was never put on a B18C5 RED valve cover. Only way to know for sure if it's a C5 is to look for the engine code in person. That engine is most likely either a B18C1or a B16 since C5's are also rare and expensive.

LOL @ Type R valve cover! Yeah man, check the motor out in person and look at the engine code.

It's the only way to know! It could be an early-spec C5/CR. WTF is up with his intake haha
