A friend of mine that replaced the level low stuff said they were Norgren valves.

They could be Humphrey valves on your model if so you can replace with a Norgren which is supposed to be the better of the 2 evils

Last time I just took the old norgren and laid it on my local supply(truck) counter the guy walked in back to back and came out with same (5 port configureation.)  $84 0ut door. there kits for rebuild if you have good core--probably is corroded from moist air in system.  While your there use compression fittings when you put back..  The push fittings tend to leak with temp change.  FWIW   Bob
