'68 442 Air Cleaner Assy

Now that I know the correct P/N for a '68 442 400ci 4bbl with auto air cleaner (thanks to the good folks in this forum) is the GM P/N actually stamped anywhere on the the cleaner? If not, what what unique characteristic should I look for?

Would like to know when I am hunting the swap meets this season.

Thanks,
pdsap

OG is silk screened in white paint on the air cleaner base. The OG air cleaner has a slightly larger snout than the OE but I'm embarrassed to say that I couldn't tell the difference without the OG on it

Ok... Thanks. Since many time guys repaint the air cleaner, it's a shame GM didn't stamp the OG or OE and part number somewhere in the base itself.

Thanks again,

This is the silk screen you could look for on an air cleaner for a '68 4-4-2, if it hasn't be re-painted. Note that the part number is also part of the silk screening.
