Help to identify '69 vs. 70 442 hood

Without having them right next to each other, how would I identify a '69 vs '70 442 steel hood (not OAI) . What are the differences on top? And underneath?

Thanks,
Andy

Hi Andy
The top skin looks the same but the latch underneath is different. The 1969 has a pin that goes into the latch on the core support. The 1970 has a square hole that the latch on the core support clips into. Here's a couple photos. John

Top is 1969, bottom is 1970.
