Title: 68 Z/28 nos valve covers

Back in 1983 I bought GM 68 z28 valve covers,they are new in the original boxes and I noticed some that are on ebay have the O stamping on them.My covers that I bought from my local chevy dealer in 1983 do not have that O stamping.Was that a factory stamping only and not a part stamping? ???

Careful with "NOS" '68 Z/28 rocker covers. At some point Chevy substituted chromed '69 covers, one of which has an oil fill cap.

I just checked the original valve covers on my '68 Z/28; both of them have the "O" stamped in the center of the top sealing flange. :)
