Re: 499 distributor stamp opinion

To be honest, I think that my distributor is a factory restamp. The area that has the numbers is missing the step for the cap, but the rest of the housing has the step.

Now I know that there were some factory engine restamps, so does my theory sound plausible for this distributor?
I've never seen a restamp nowadays that has the correct fonts like this one.

Here's another pic at a slightly different angle.
