I based the guess on the fact that they are both larger than one I KNOW was planted in 1937, and the top end of 105 is when the house was built.

The lean of the trunks is noticeable, but barely. If I had to guess it would be less then 4º.

The bleeding sap was all around the tree, clear watery sap and coming out through the bark not through holes.

The larvae apparently were dead, my dad for some reason had decided to spray the remaining can wasp spray into the hole, and the larvae appeared the next day.

Will try to get a couple of pics of the whole trees soon.
