A little off topic but if you change your plugs put new coils on while you're in there... seems like a common issue w/the coils going bad.

What is the number on the side of the plug? PZH14 is the updated plug and means they've been changed. PZT14 would likely be originals or at least changed before the updated plug.

I guess it's possible they could be OE... Only way to know would be to ask the PO or stumble upon a service record. How mAny miles on the truck?

Looks kinda like rust to me.
