Worx intake grate help

[Rowdogg50]

I have a Worx intake grate on my SJ that I can’t identify. Need help from the pros. It looks like a 205 but no side fins. I can’t find cut or grind marks to show someone removing them. Thanks in advance for any info or input.

Early 650 grate maybe? Never seen one like that......

What’s the pros or cons of Not having the side fins???

 

[Big Kahuna]

Pros- Top Speed may be a little better,
Cons - Wont have as good of hookup in rougher water.
