What king of piston rings did the DEs come with? Mild steel? Moly? Any coatings?

most all piston rings are cast iron (at least the top 2) some "performance" rings have a moly coating applied but I don't think any factory parts do

there's no such thing as "moly" rings and I've never heard of steel rings-really cast iron works very well since it's the same material the cylinder walls are
