Amazon doesn't refer to it as an E-code headlamp, but that's what it is -- Cibie 82440. They also incorrectly call it a fog lamp, but that may be for legal purposes because technically, they are not DOT-approved. FWIW, I bought my first E-codes in the early Seventies and have never had any issues with them. Just aim them so they won't blind oncoming traffic -- adjust the low beams so the horizontal cutoff is slightly lower than the lamp and you'll be fine. Standard 55/60W bulbs are more than adequate for highway use (and are not included with the lamps from Amazon).
