G'day GoPop,
The ones in the background are Spinlock to me, that crosshatching mark rings bells.
Unsure about the foreground ones, sorry.

yes the back ones are Spinlock. I just gave up trying to source new cams and pulled them off and replaced them. I went down a size as ropes have got better and we dont need the diameter that we did 15 years ago.

mauri pro sailing in US has cams and rebuild kits in stock.
You can also get cams to suit smaller diameter to help prevent slipping.

I did mine last year, and came with the new shells also.
$40 Good as new.

The Spinlock in your photo looks like a Mark I triple. The outside case is slightly different in the later version. Also I believe the bolt holes changed in the double and triples.
Spinlock are still available from Germany, even though they are an English design. I just brought 2x singles, 2x doubles and 2x triples recently.
