Check out this firewall pic from Jose’s car. He will probably post more about what he is finding.

Carefully chipping away at the spray bomb I believe I also discovered the location missing RH B stamp. Which was over the white 0.
Last pic is orange color compared to T stamp

Thank you gentlemen for the compliments. I hope to contribute some information through all of this.

I've just discovered a portion of the factory marks on the lower front valance also says 1 02. Image flipped upsidedown for easier reading.
