it looks like a standard 57mm drop, not too disimilar to a low end Tektro DP from the 90s.
If it works, don't sweat it, grease, adjust and continue using.

No idea but there are clues to their cheapness. The cable adjuster nut is inexpensive alloy, the blocks are a basic, non-cartridge type and the rust on the mounting bolt speaks volumes. Campag these ain't.
If you are looking to rebuild them, the parts are probably easily substitutable (if that's a word) with those from any of a dozen makers.
Possibly East European with a name like that? Did Hungary ever have a bike industry?
