Some dealers added stripes at their own bodyshops, and weren't terribly exact about it. I worked at a Chev Olds dealer in the 70's and masked quite a few new and used cars for stripes. In those days,I wasn't as accurate as I am now..................

It appears to be a non-cowl hood with hood pins.

That '72 SS Chevelle was talked about before.The dealership painted the stripes on after taking delivery on it's standard SS non flapper hood,which did include hood pins during 1972.

I would have added the stripes in my teenage days.....today, no stripes is way better.....the stripes hide the beauty of the car.....JMO.
