LS400 brakes

Can someone tell me if these are 4 pot LS400 brakes
I assume you need one from a 95 onwards UCF20?

They dont look to be in the greatest condition. Is this of concern?
Which one would be the best set to buy?

Set 3

Set 4

Thanks.
Which looks in the best condition to get?
Some look like the rotors have massive amounts of rust?
