 I'd say the spacing between each number/letter do seem a little w-i-d-e  8)
Looks like imitation broach marks too.

A Van Nuys built car with "PBT" stamping. Someone needed to do more home work before they started on this car.

The engine stamping is so wrong, in many ways.

Transmission case looks to be smoothed out where most were stamped and rest amped as well.

No argument there is a lot to question here, but on the transmission date, early January Muncie assembly dates have been observed in several LOS-built cars up to late March timeframe. I have a Muncie with a March '69 partial VIN, assembled January 4th.
