Anybody know these original smog parts...?

Found the pump: 1432S, so I believe is 143rd day of 1972, meaning the 29295 diverter & hoses & clamp & elbow are all 1972-73.

With regard to smog pump dates, I place little if any value on this. Being a judge of 2nd gen Camaro LEGENDS at Carlisle, it is next to impossible to read the date, if you can see it all.......

In my opinion having survivor hoses, a quality restored divertor and white pump fan are the most important components.

Even the repop 458 Pulley is difficult to ID in the installed position. Repop trees are pretty good also.

Obviously if you have OEM/survivor parts great, but at the end of the day I feel your $$$$ might be better spent elsewhere, than to crazy with dating/originality on some of this stuff.

As with the 827/526 Exhaust Manifolds you CANT SEE dates when installed, so whats all that fuss about. I'd suggest to anyone buy the best condition ones, have them flame sprayed (or should I say reskinned, ala Jerry) and hose them down with VHT high temp cast blast.....

..........but then again what do I know ?????
