There are no records of a He162, "8" in Kassel. There was however a "white 3, WNr.120028" and a "yellow 6, WNr.310017". Maybe it is one of the two. See

The "4" is a different story:
"White 4, WNr.120067", originaly captured by the british in Leck, this plane was shipped to Kassel for planned for shipping and evaluation to and in the US. Howerver, only the wings made it to the US and were mounted on "white 7, WNr.120022" that later became FE-493. The fuselage of "white 4" seems to have been scrapped in Kassel.
"White 7, WNr.120022" (FE-493) and "Yellow 6, WNr.310017" (FE-?) were brought to the US.
