Looks like a good haul. D24 injectors will be stamped "130 bar" and D24T injectors are 155 bar. The D24 injectors can be rebuilt to turbo spec with some work.

If the injectors have been stored with the fuel inlets open as shown then they should be considered rebuildable cores, not ready to install in an engine, as the success rate with them as-is will be low or zero depending on how long they sat. The fuel turns into gum if they sit without being sealed and the injectors will hang open and have poor spray pattern and incorrect timing, meaning the engine will run badly at best and can be damaged at worst. If they were just tested good recently then they may be OK, but if they were tested years ago then put away like this then you would not want to rely on one now regardless of how it tested back in the day.

With used glow plugs you have to check the part number as some of the early ones may be for the old slow glow system and cannot be mixed with the later style fast plugs and relay. At $10ea for new and much improved modern Bosch glow plugs, running old used glow plugs is really not worth it since they don't work as well and have a shorter lifespan. If putting in used plugs be sure to only install in one of the front four cylinders and never in 5 and 6 since those are labor intensive and you don't want to have to go back in there repeatedly.

Is the IP the D24 version or turbo version with enrichment device on top? Is the starter Bosch or Hitachi, direct drive or reduction? Pictures of those would help, those parts are often in demand.
