They look a lot like some circa 2010 M765 XT brakes I have (which are awesome, and still rocking after 15 years). There are a bunch on ebay now you could compare to. Also the series number should be printed on the underside of the lever clamp

You might need to take some stuff apart to find a model number. That number in the last picture is just for the brake caliper adapter.

I need to adress the elephant in the room : one of the screw attaching the mounting bracket to the fork is unscrewed!

Is there a reason you need specific model? If you’re looking for spare pads, there aren’t that many different pads and they’re all quite distinctive. If they’re faulty, then there’s similar new Shimano models which are very cheap and work well – so they’re probably not worth fixing.

Edit: had a second look at the calipers (no idea what those are) and made corrections
If you’re just trying to maintain them, they are probably compatible with ~~all~~ the same *hose* parts as MT-200s: BH59 hose/hardware, *but I would measure.* ~~and BO5S and equivalent pads.~~
Bleeding is different with these levers. Some people make plates to screw on top so they can bleed them like newer Shimano. My trick is to tape a container underneath and just let them overflow. Mineral oil is so cheap I don’t mind wasting a little and it makes bleeding them really easy.

Non series direct to manufacturer components, likely altus or deore level.
What do you need to fix.
They’re actually a pretty reliable system from my experience.

It should say what model they are on the lever on the underside of the clamp

Yep!
those are disc brakes!
Shimano Deore.
