Question Help Identify These Engines

I bought these two pictures from the local Ferrari dealer a little while ago. They were cleaning out old art on display. One is in my office, the other in the garage. I would like to know what cars they are from.

I don't want to sign up for another forum. I figured there are enough sharp members here that someone will know. The thread is still young.

The 2nd black one is likely from an F1 or some class of sports car (LM, IMSA, ???) as the block is being utilized as a stressed member. I'm not expert enough to know what application.

I'm thinking the 1st one is from a 612 front engine V12 and the 2nd one from a mid engine maybe an Enzo. They are both modern engines with COP ignitions. My guess.

The 'Garage Picture' appears to be out of a 550 Maranello and the 'Office Picture' is a Formula 1 engine from the 1990s.
