Took apart the upper gearbox. It uses T8 torx screws.
The cylinder head is not a standad V2 one. There seems to be some sort of padding, 2.7 mm deep. It feels a lot firmer than my 70 sorbo. The nozzle itself is also longer at 29 mm. It seems to have some sort of taper design. I can feel resistance as the nozzle moves towards the cylinder head. The tip of the cylinder head is 21.3 mm long. I'm not sure what the purpose of this is. It seems to hinder tappet plate movement. The stock piston has zero compression. I can move the piston in and out of the cylinder with my finger sealing the cylinder head, with only slight resistance. Swapping in a new piston/piston head immediately improves compression.
AOE is at about 11:30 position.
Does anyone know if this cylinder head/nozzle setup is from another gun?

The Evike MG42 is under the S&T "Brand" from what I understand.

You're correct, at least that's what the manual it came with says, although I could've sworn I saw AGM on the box (already thrown out), but I've been known to remember things wrong...
I will report back after I take apart the lower gearbox. I'm planning on installing the SC 10.44 single sector gear set into it.
Edit:
Took apart the lower gearbox, also held by T8 torx. There seems to be almost no grease on the bevel gear.
The gears all say "X" on them.
Here is the trigger trolley. It's one unit with a return spring inside. The switch on top activates the motor on the drum. The switch seem to have been glued in place and is very fragile. Trying to pull it out with my pliers cracked the switch. I pried it out with a pick instead. The button also feels very loose. Good thing I won't be need it since I'm wiring it to the main battery. The contacts are close together so it's possible to pull the trigger slightly to shoot but not activate the feeder.
The SC 10.44 SSG set seems to fit in the gearbox half, which should suggest that it will work with other V2 gear sets.
