Help identifying ammo

[DSeifert]

I am looking for help in identifying some ammo that I have the opportunity to buy. The seller has a sealed metal box with the following markings:

POF
WAH
1981

7.62 BALL L2A2

I know that this is 7.62x51 ball ammo from Pakistan, but can someone tell me if this is brass cased? Boxer or berden primed? Corrosive?

Thanks in advance for the help

joelogic,
I found most of the specs. you posted, but I couldn't find the primer info. So thank you. Any comment on what would be a reasonable price per 1000?
