Anything to do with Oldsmobile has an asterisk attached to it. The parts are more expensive and are limited in application. Sometimes there are hidden problems such as the one we are discussing. I restored a 69 W-30 in 1990. That was when they were not repopping ANYTHING! It was tough but good things come to those who work hard. It turned out beautifully. No thanks to the parts guys. My grills were in about 10 pieces and were glued together to make them good. As you know the grill on a 442 is different than a Cutlass. I had to use it rather than the 10,000 grills I found from Cutlasses. I have owned many chevys and still do, but when I pull in the lot with an under the bumper Ram AIr car people freak. I even had one guy comment on my nicely done "Homemade Ram Air". I told him it was in fact, factory. He looked closer and as they say was "Amazed". LOL
