Shopping for an FG X XR8: has the blower pulley been changed?

Two stock-looking XR8s turn up for sale. One has a box of original parts, the other has a receipt that just says “tune”. What would you want to know before arranging an inspection? I’d ask for the tuner’s job sheet and confirmation of which pulley, injectors and calibration are on the car today. Anyone managed to piece this together after several owners?

I’d check the dates against each other. An invoice for returning the pulley to stock is useful, but I’d still ask which calibration went back in.
