Someone added a shroud, your car came with the non-shroud top plate. didn't you post this question elsewhere before?

I was the one who asked the question in the "for sale" thread.

per the posted documentation (in the other thread) the car is coded for "FE" - radiator & "V02" - heavy duty radiator 2.00" core

per the assembly manual:
sect. 11 page 50: 4400 series w/V02 = radiator "FE" #3014745 (1 of 5 radiators for the 442) * "V02" MANDATORY w/3.42 axle ratio (NA with A/C-C60 or HD Cooling-Y72).
sect. 11 page 52: 4400 series (NO Radiator Upper Baffle Assembly indicated for "V02"), but there are only 2 shown for 442 (STD & V01, C60, Y72).
sect. 11 page 108: shows upper radiator hose attached to Radiator Upper Baffle (for V8 w/o V01, C60, Y72) & NO shroud.
sect. 11 page 110: shows shroud with V8 with V01, C60, Y72 (upper radiator hose attached to shroud).

IMO the assembly manual shows the "FA", "FB", & "FE" radiators have narrow tanks (for 3 row cores) & the "EC" & "ED" radiators have the wide tanks (4-row cores).

Of the '70 442s currently on eBay only two have a "4-core" top plate.

OP: What's holding the top of the shroud to the top plate and/or radiator?
