Okay this will sound picky, but the ven or variable exhaust nozzle "flaps" cant be referred to as vanes. Those would be the intermediary stages between the compressor blades and those are called inlet guide vanes which can be variable or static. As for engines the F-14D used General Electric F110-GE-400 and the F-4E used General Electric J79-GE-17A and the EA 6B the Pratt & Whitney J52-P408A. Different marks used different engines.
Now vens are mad up of 2 sets of flaps, the iner and the outer and the F-15 where I first heard them called turkey feathers had the outers removed, forget why. But all the engine guys I know and worked with just called vens, vens.
