Broaches and stampings aside, it looks as if much more was decked off it may expose the waterpump bolt hole?.

Re: What do you think of this pad?
-----Am always suspect of stampings that are just too straight. As well, if you look at the broaching all the broach-marks are not parallel, and that just cant be.......Bill S

Re: What do you think of this pad?
The VIN is stramped into the block and the trans at the same time, so I checked some trans cases for the type of "3" that was used...
I found 2 Muncie main cases as examples... P9P13(sept 13th 1968) 19S703966 P9H06B(june 6th 1969) 19S731445 Both examples used round top 3"s not flat top 3"s... I have not seen a Corvette small VIN(1968 and later) use a flat top "3"... Hope this helps... Crash

Re: What do you think of this pad?
If you zoom in a little on the vin stamp, I believe I can see the original stamping just above it. Decked and restamped with just the shadow of the original stamp barely visible.
