I would say this is a later produced piece I have some similar ones here and also some originals, and also if you have the originals and later produced ones side by side its hard to divide them. ok lets take it further, the o and a indicates its the early sandcast so they used this mold but from the pvc elbow and the material shape of both parts I would say it was done later all the early ones I have look a little bit more rough in the letters and the pvc elbow is different. It´s just a guess that maybe the form was used later again in the 70s maybe. I have some similar pieces but exactly compared to the from factory pre 600 gt500 cars there are small differences that you can see. maybe I`m wrong and they changed the aluminum material a bit and the pvc elbow in the production of maybe the 600 pieces they made so that there are differences or what my guess is that they used the casting form later again in the 70s.
