New Campagnolo threaded headset question

Bought one of these for my Holdsworth redo and found it didn't come with ball bearings

It appears that it doesn't need them. If so, should I grease the innards when installing?

Pretty sure you need bearings for that...what do the inside of the cups look like?

Nevermind - me bad. I found the bearings in a plastic base that held the rest of the assembly together for shipping.
