Do you happen to have any casting numbers or id marks that you are looking for? Stud count/distance between? I may be able to help

The hood piercings for 1971/72 Olds hood script show it having 3 studs. The script number is 408952 - this was for 4400 series cars only in 71, and W29 cars only in 72.

Wow, Thanks Allan! mine has three posts, but casting number looks like 40452. It is NOS, but I misplaced the GM box. I suppose that I will find a home for it eventually.

I looked up the Oldsmobile script that would go on the grill (Group 1.303) and the only one I can find for a Non W29 car is 231425 for the part number. It appears that same script was used on B/C cars as well.

@dc2x4drvr - If I see a nice fender Oldsmobile Script for a W29 I'll let you know.
