Default Hood Pins

Is there a correct type or style of hood pins to use for a 68 Camaro? It is a Baldwin Motion tribute car if that makes a difference. I like the Mopar style, they look a little nicer, but not sure if they were used on the Camaro or not. I'm trying to finish up some odds and ends on the car and really appreciate everyones help on all the questions I've posted recently.

Thanks Again, Scott

Scott,

The hood pins were a dealer add-on if the customer requested.
I'm not aware of any "GM" hood pins used on the 1st gens.

My '69 SS 396 Camaro had dealer installed hood pins and I
opted in re-include these ( is that a word? ) after my
restoration. I have mixed feeling on that decision these days.

Steve

After thinking about it and looking at other cars I'm debating whether or not to use them. I can always add them, but definitely don't want to fill the holes back in.
