It looks like one of the generic white box kits (although it does have "1128" cast into it on the upper left). The dealers (and everyone) need to be educated on these that the wrist pin clips (and sometimes the pin) are not hardened components like OEM and fail often.

The roof of the exhaust port looks pretty squared off.

First AM I've seen with 1128 stamped on the top

I'm not saying I am a Stihl expert. to be truthful this guy had to really twist my arm to fix this saw. He spent close to 380 at a stihl dealer to have this fixed. then it blew up and stihl dealer said must be a lower bearing? without even inspecting it. Then I tore into it to find the circlip wedged between the piston and the cylinder. Had to really fight it to tear it apart. I had thought it may of been OEM stihl till I seen the NEW One a fellow member sent me today in a factory stihl box. It said Stihl on one side and gr****** whatever Italian mfg on the other side. The ole one said 1128 on top yes but no mfg id anywhere. Remember the Chinese will copy everything even the 1128 id remember the china clone Huskies that all had the same serial Number?

I've got a 1122 stamped aftermarket one. Gilardoni?

 

[Chainsaw Jim]

Some of the rings on aftermarket pistons are also not hardened. I have a pair that will stay at whatever gap you open or close them to.

On my Chinese Farmertec ms361, every part on the saw has 1135 stamped on it. So that jug may be a FT. Just a guess

I don't think this one is a Gilardoni jug, the finish is too "light".

Stihl made 440 jugs in-house but they have the straight fins on top. They do make top ends at their Brazilian and Chinese facilities but they're marked with the Stihl logo.

I meant the oem he received.

The new one is Gilardoni. Gotta double check with the customer and see if he paid for
OEM or aftermarket.

That one doesn't look like a farmertec or nwp or hyway or meteor and not gillardoni, mahle, koblenschmidt or in house Stihl.

An ebay customer asked me about one of those recently that was marked the same as your pic except it was a 52mm big bore.

Dave, the cylinder kits sold by NWP have that same V and G4 markings on them. I don`t know what Chinese manufacturer makes them but NWP sells them.

Hmmm I wonder if that is the chrome bore kit they sell.
I only ever order the nikasil kits but they do have chrome kits for some models that are a little less expensive.
I may have to order one to verify

I have seen them but have not used one, they just come in a white box like many aftermarket sets do with no name on them. I will see if I can find a link to one, eBay is usually a good place for stuff like that.
