OK its a reverse mini 9 pin. It will be expensive I suspect as its mil.
Or just find some pins stick them in with wires for temp.
If the cover can be removed potentially much more insight can be gained.
Given at this point they are worthless. No harm or foul in diving in.
Potentially you can at least find ground on the pins.

to be a threaded thermometer well in the front and a frequency adjustment
in the rear under a cap screw.  As there are no mounting holes to secure
these, I assume they were held in a clamping arrangement.

Is it a MicroD? There are some inexpensive plastic connectors that are
compatible (I can't remember the part number, but if they are MicroD,
I'll track it down). You might check Omnetics, too.
