Roger, "Zundfogle" is German for "firing order". This was cast in the valve covers and heads of older MB engines for reference purposes. Sellers who don't know these cars like we do will often put a reference in their for sale ads about the "zundfogle" engines, thinking this term means there's something of great value relative to this.
It's sort of like the folks who refer to the laminated glass windows on the W140 models as being "bulletproof". Always gives us a good chuckle....
