My Marzen that turned out VERY well:
Into 23L:
2.5kg Pale Malt
2.5kg Pilsner Malt
250gr CaraMunich I
250gr Goldswaen Brown
Mashed at 69°C for an hour, and then sparged as normal. OG for this was something silly like 1.058.
Boiled for 60 minutes using Nugget to get around 22 IBUs if I remember correctly. It's not a bitter style but because of the higher OG I wanted to balance it out well. Might have been 25 IBUs as well, I can't remember for sure.
Anyway, after letting it cool I fermented it with a lager yeast, although I can't remember exactly which one. I believe it might have been an in-house Pilsner yeast from NFP, but I can't be sure, it was a yeast cake I got somewhere in the fridge. Anyway, it was a slow and steady lager yeast, fermented slow and steady and then lagered for a few weeks. Turned out FANTASTIC.

If you can supply the malt list to the gram, why is the rest of the info not noted down somewhere?

Technically you don't. You want some malty sweetness, but a Marzen shouldn't really have caramel flavour to it. That is, if you care to make it to style (or for competition).
Some caramel is fine to contribute malty sweetness, but it shouldn't taste or smell of caramel.

The cara gold and caramunich II is because thats what I have you can use 500gr of any crystal thats about 120ebc
The caramunich III is for color. You can sub in choclate rye if you can find.
I used high pressure coz I have it but you can use w37/70 at ale temps or any true to form cali ale yeast at lager temps.
Cant sub the northern brewer as that is the signature hop.
Its one of my favourite styles it greatly improves with a bit of lagering.
