Those are Tri-Y style, not sure what years they fit though.

The head ports should be the same but the bend of the pipes to hug the motor and clear the tranny is what I'd be worried about not knowing what year body they came from unless he knows. For example a set of headers for a fox body won't fit in our engine bay, they'll hit the shock towers since there were none in the foxbody, they would bolt to the head the same but not fit the body.

Some fit better than others, oddly sometimes from the same manufacturer. That style should fit any 65-70 289/302.
