Can anyone assist with the following ID’s for these 2 pressure gauges. I’m trying to work out what aircraft they would have been used on
The first one on the left may be Canadian or US ??. It has a part number AHO 5168 and bears the name of Eureka hence the possible North American ID
The second larger gauge looks post war with a brass plate on the back with 6A/2234. Looks unused as its got the 3 metal screw covers on the rear tubes.
Any suggestions (polite ones only)

The triple brakes pressure gauge is post war. The eureka gauge has a Dunlop part number. I think it is 30s. The prototype whirlwind had similar gauged as did some Hawker bipes
