DZ stamping on pad but no serial number visible. Any opinions on the stamp?

Manifold looks to be a reproduction. Front pad looks wavy? Danny
I won't give an opinion with paint on the pad.
The video shows a single 4 barrel running on a different intake. Strange.
New pictures show paint removed. Not an expert of course but didn't/doesn't look right. D
Danny,
What's the giveaway for the repro manifold?
The pad stamping looks reasonable to me. Would be itnering to see the whole pad. I would think the partial VIN would be stamped on it in this timeframe.
This ended today as a no sale for $10000, on another note, a non running ZL1 engine went for $50000 yesterday.
That pad is assembly date 11/05/68? Generally, VINs were started to be stamped on the oil filter boss around mid December of 68. More than likely, the VIN should be on the pad on this motor right?
Looks like they tried to find a partial VIN. But I don't see anything posted on if they found one.
