I would say the opposite. It would not be common on a real car to change out the cowl tag. Like in this instance where they kept the old one.
Most get put on to either make a car what it isnt or because it was missing in the first place.

Those driveline stampings look legit. I would say that hes lucky he found that original cowl tag.
Body number is the same on both. I would like to see the pad stamping bare, but initial thought is that its good.

I think that original cowl tag was on that car. What would be nice is to find a pic of it attached to the car pre restoration.
