You Sir, are correct! That eyesore parts store POS is still there because I haven't been able to locate a proper power drum Master.

By my October '67 dated parts book '67 drum brake Chevelle and Camaro, with or without power, use the same BS master, or can be stamped CT??

'67 Chevelle power drum masters use a different casting with bleeders, but still stamped BS, like the attached image.
My friendly NAPA guy ordered in four remans, and one is a casting mostly similar to original. My buddy Merl set it up in his mill and duplicated the machined pads followed by installation of dummy bleeders. I need to go upstairs and find a suitable cap and correct early, straight bail.

Still looking for a real, correct master though.
