Even if you found a used original (that was good or you could have repaired), that would be better than any chinese aftermarket one.

Your 69 L48 would have come with a 3927170 pump or 3953692 pump.

That cowl tag is absolutely 100% fake/reproduction.

I agree that looks like the right font there. Similar stamping like this was found on my 69 LOS rotors

That had to be one of the last Z28's built at Van Nuys.

My 02A doesnt have the blackout on the tank. Its definately the original but its possible a previous owner could have removed it.

Both my VanNuys 69's have original gas tanks. The straps are black.  I know my 11B RS/SS had the blackout. I always thought this was painted by a previous owner. My 02A Z28 has a pristine gas tank dated 25 69 with the updside down backwards 5. The tank looks like new from what I recall. Broadcast sheet was retrieved from it before I owned it, so I know its been down.
I will go in the garage and check this out now. Never knew this was a thing.
