Mark,
translations from the photos are:
1 (Grenade Head) "Vor Gebrauch Sprengkapsel einsetzen" = "Insert detonator capsule befor use"

3 (Stamp) "unreadable...stelle" = "....Department"
"Feldpostnummer" = Field Post Office & number

4 "Heeresmunition" = "Army Ammunition"

I can't find WaA 85.
The Text "30 Ei-Handgranaten" seems to belong to a different granade packaging as it means "pineapple style (egg-)hand granades".
"Gesamtgewicht" stands for "total gross weight".
