Anyone heard of python fuel injectors?

Like the title say, anyone heard of or know anything about python fuel injectors? So I got a code for a cylinder #3 misfire a while back. I took it to a mechanic that my family has been going to for 8+ years. He replaced the injector along with #1 and #5 while the plenum was off. Seemed fine but then the misfire happened again. Got the coils replaced and replaced the spark plugs. Still didn't work. Also started gettin TONS of black smoke out the tailpipe. Obviously it was running extremely rich. So I take it to a local nissan dealer and they found that the injectors my mechanic put in were aftermarket "python" injectors. So they fixed it, now I'm gonna go down to my old mechanic and throw those injectors at him one at a time and get my money back.

for the stealership. I have to say I had some AWESOME service both on my car and myself. Sure I paid more than I should have but the job was done right. OH and they washed my car too!!!
