Thanks for info.

Some useful trick to find a compatible head stack? (I cant compare P/N and MLC)

Make sure the client pays for each part with the understanding that it will be some trial and error because of what they did.

So no label and what? Is it a problem?
I don't see for what client should pay extra.

If you end up needing to change heads three times because you can't match all the specs you normally would from the label. I personally wouldn't charge extra labor for it, but they'd be buying all the parts I use whether they work or not.

any evidence that heads were not working when information on labels were mismatch? on this exact model.
