I hope you all will forgive me for posting more stuff for the Led Zeppelin II multitracks, but I completely looked over these mixes before.
They're not listed as such, but upon listening, it's obvious what they are.
These are what the band used as reference mixes (i.e. the reference mixes that appear on the Presence reissue). They contain a ton of new little bits and pieces that aren't heard anywhere else (not even the reissues).
These versions were fully mixed already, meaning that unlike the other versions I posted, I did not mix anything.

0:00 Whole Lotta Love
Most notably featuring an unheard vocal take during the "Way Down Inside" part.
The electrifying ending is also worth a listen. 5:54 "And that's the end"

5:59 What Is and What Should Never Be
The beginning features random little tidbits from the studio. I'm convinced this would've ended up a lot like the beginning of Friends.
Also featuring a new stereo effect on the vocals during the chorus section.

11:14 Heartbreaker
The drums are brought much higher in the mix, at the partial expense of the vocals.
The solo (which is different, although it also appeared on the reissue) also has a weird effect over it. It sounds almost like a Leslie speaker.

15:55 Ramble On
The drums sound remixed in this version, and in my opinion they sound ridiculously good.
Also the fade occurs much later in the song.
