I think there WAS a H.O. 350 but Not applied to the 400 cu in motors.
The early '69 HO's like this car were shown as Ram Air cars on the invoice but the RA (Hood Inlet) wasn't available to be ordered until late Jan. 69 due to production issues.
I believe sometime in Dec. '68, Pontiac changed the invoice to 400/HO and once the RA parts were available there was a separate option 611 Hood Inlet which added the RA stuff. So the invoice/window sticker would show options 348 - 400/HO and 611 - Hood Inlet.

Fwiw, this car is a very rare convertible and it will be interesting to see what it brings.
