Looks like the bar, chain, and muffler are superseded.
In North America and OZ, the 340,341,400,401,410,411 take muffler 21.174.321 now, with spark arrestor 21.174.340

I agree with you, that saw looks a lot like that series.
They take a WT 466 with limiter caps on the H and L screws in USA now, WT 174 elsewhere.

It's a PS-341

It's a PS-341

How can you tell the diff between a 341 and a 401?

My dealer sells new 341s for $180, so I would imagine it wouldn't take mush to relegate that beater in the pics to parts saw status.

The 522.092.052 is a 52 driver length chain which is 14" thats standard on the ps-341.

Well after searching and reading I came up with the same saw numbers. PS-341 PS-401. Saws look identical. except bore is bigger on the 401. At least thats what I think.
Did'nt realize the saw had a compression release, that accounted for the low compression. Rechecked with valve out, showed 120LBS.

Thanks all for the help.
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL

It's my understanding a 341 has compression release and 340 does not.
At least that's the difference between a Makita 6400/6401.
