Default Engine code decal - 1970 L78

Does anyone know whether in the case of a 1970 L78 with automatic in a Nova Tonawanda affixed a "CTY" yellow engine sticker at the rear of the passenger side valve cover.If so does anyone reproduce the sticker.Thanks Bob

There weren't any engine code labels/stickers on the BB Nova valve covers....I believe that was a Camaro thing have seen it done though by those with artistic license...

Tom,

Thanks for confirming what i thought. I have the original valve covers on my 1970 L78 auto, with no evidence of a sticker ever being on them, yet see a lot of restos done with the decal.
