Default N.O.S. Sheetmetal

I have a NOS 1969 Camaro cowl induction hood and was wondering does anyone if they have any part numbers on them or is there any type of stamping or markings that's different from aftermarket.

I don't think the NOS stuff was marked I have read the tell tale signs are the rear corners near the hood hinges the angle is pretty unique and look like this. after market is a much cleaner line. Also where the hood adjusters hit should have 3 dots that for a triangle.

Wasn't there a yellow sticker / tag on most replacement NOS as well?

Thanks guys,I am pretty sure that I have one now according to some of the markings.The one I have has been painted and the previous owner told me that he bought the hood several years ago from Chevy dealership and hauled it for years till he finally rebuilt his car.
