Sealed : You have to cut them open unfortunately.

About 38.5mm ID through the body of the tube, a bit bigger at the mouth because there are some machined areas.

About 350-355mm from where it starts necking down at the bottom to the top, depending on where you cut it.

A few extra mm past this at the bottom until you hit rock bottom, but the diameter is fairly undefined.

I'm parting out an '85 Jazz (I am in Switzerland) and plan on removing the front & rear struts.
