36- is a parts number prefix for Martin B-26 Marauder.

Something from North American.

Looks like a North American inspector's stamp, doesn't it?

That ANA inspection stamp is from North American, and the dataplate
looks "North American-esque".

If it helps, the North American part number prefix specifies
the NAA model number of the aircraft, and North American
did build 177 BC-1 aircraft (North American model number
designation was NA-36).

.
The parts looks very North American and the NA and 36- would support them being BC-1 which was the closest NA family member to the Wirraway.

If posted in Australia these photos would be assumed to be Wirraway parts especially with the remnant round rudder.

I feel sure they are BC-1, some rare parts if so.

The last picture is a left or right rudder from a PV-2 Harpoon...
