I was wondering the same thing Kurt. Looks like a subframe bushing right above it.

I apoligize for not resizing at least the frame picture and maybe others......the largest pic above shows a 70 Camaro subframe with mfg date.....

Then I don't think that's the correct decode for that stamp.
Norwood didn't build that frame, hence wouldn't have stamped a date on it. The supplier would have stamped it.
To approach it the other way, ever see an LA car with a L code on subrame?

stamp could have been done at the factory, not at the subframe builder, which is more likely the case anyhow, how else would you keep straight what subframe/engine assy goes with what body assy?

Never saw a subframe date stamped into the metal frame. Citrus Z, there is no VIN on the frame, just a date code, not sure how that would beep the body, engine and frame together. Also why stamp the plant assuming the N= Norwood. A new mystery...
