Ebay 458DA pulley, is this repop?

[737Driver]

Paul Baker is a fellow I have purchased many parts from over the years. He is a good fellow and I like him, however, my opinion is, it is best to buy parts from him in transactions where you hand him the money and he hands you the part. Ordering from Goat Hill has the potential and the verified history of causing hard feelings from many buyers.

As previously stated, Paul Baker at Goat Hill Classics sells a nice reproduction pulley. Like many reproductions, it varies from the original configuration.

I have included PICS of an original front and back. One thing the reproduction lacks is the slight deformation the stamping causes on the back of an original.

Here is the later version off my 74 z/28. This is the type with the ink stamping for future reference:

Ink stamping. I guess after the ink wears off, there is no way of identifying this??

Among other subtle details,the fact that there's no F & P stamped into it helps narrow it down as a later issued as well.

I'd like some opinions on a 458DA pulley I ran across.
I see a slight outline of an oval around the stamped numbers.
It came off a smog pump that is dated 2382.
Could this be what some of the 71 72 versions looked like as the dies wore out that did the stamping?

No one has an opinion on this???
If you think the above pulley is an original, tell me why, and if you think it's a repop, let me know the reasons also.

Could you post a pic of the rear of the pulley?
