Default Seen these valve stems?

Has anyone seen these valve stems before? Three of them came on the wheels and they fit perfectly, but I'm missing one and the rubber is cracked.. Idk if they're actually wed sport stems since they're not stamped, but if anyone could assist me, I'd finally be able to finish rebuilding my wheels I'm just looking for a comparable one ( the 90 degree ones I got wouldn't work.)

Thanks.

I appreciate it. It's good and bad, because I know where I can get them, but it's gonna cost me lol

i had those on my Locksmice Mesh. 90 degree bend valve pretty much.

heres what you do. purchase another set of 90 bends from any tire shop (see if you can from like wheel pros or something)

take there rubber off and use is as yours. that is if you want to keep your originals. Thats what i did
